[Marvin Rothwell]

Dear Ci4CC Members,

 We invite you to participate in a brief Initial Interest Stakeholder Survey supporting the Fueling the Future Initiative, led by the Cancer Center Informatics Society (Ci4CC).

 For the past 15 years, Ci4CC has been the nation’s leading oncology informatics organization, advancing precision oncology through artificial intelligence, data science, and informatics across NCI-Designated and Community Cancer Centers. Guided by our motto—“Turn data into knowledge and knowledge into health®”—Ci4CC brings together leaders from cancer centers, academia, and industry to accelerate impact.

 Ci4CC National Initiative: Fueling the Future: Empowering Emerging Voices in Cancer Informatics is a Ci4CC initiative focused on expanding and strengthening pathways into cancer informatics, clinical trials, and research. The initiative emphasizes partnership-building, training and mentoring opportunities, and the sharing of best practices across cancer centers, universities, and industry.

 

What is Cancer Informatics?

Cancer informatics is a multidisciplinary field at the intersection of information science, computer science, and healthcare. It focuses on acquiring, storing, analyzing, and using cancer-related data efficiently and securely to improve cancer understanding, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.

 Survey purpose

This short survey is designed to:

• Measure awareness of cancer informatics, clinical trials, and research
• Understand prior participation and experience
