The NCI BC Planning Committee is committed to:

  • Creating an environment that strengthens the bonds between members of the bioinformatics community within the NCI;
  • Developing robust training and professional development programs to improve the skillset of community members that ensures they stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and methodologies; and
  • Linking individuals with like-minded interests in new topics to self-assemble in order to facilitate networking, troubleshooting, and learning from each other; and promote interdisciplinary collaboration on tool, algorithm, workflow, and pipeline.
