Welcome to the NCI Cancer Research Portfolio Web site. This Web site
provides a structure for searching, organizing, and analyzing research
supported by the National Cancer Institute
by organ/cancer site and/or by broad area of scientific interest. The areas
of scientific interest are identified in the Common
Scientific Outline (CSO), a classification system created to provide a
common approach to comparing and assessing cancer research supported by
different funding organizations. The CSO categories include:
- Biology
- Etiology (causes of
cancer)
- Prevention
- Early detection,
diagnosis, and prognosis
- Treatment
- Cancer control,
survivorship, and outcomes research
- Scientific model
systems.
You can browse and explore active (FY 2002) NCI-supported research,
including extramural and intramural projects, by Type
of Cancer or by Type of Cancer Research.
Search results include listings showing the number of projects by
disease/organ site category, number of projects organized by CSO term, and
number of projects organized by CSO categories for a specific disease/organ
site. Selecting a specific result provides a list of all underlying NCI
projects and links to the project abstracts. The advanced search function allows you to
search the entire NCI research portfolio by additional categories including
state, institution, funding mechanism, and year.
NCI Research Portfolio content is updated periodically throughout the
year. To check back often, please add the Cancer Research
Portfolio (http://researchportfolio.cancer.gov) to your list of bookmarks.
