Project acronym: EOSC4Cancer
Project title: A European-wide foundation to accelerate Data-driven Cancer Research
Project registration number: 101058427
State funding provider: European Union
Programme: Horizon 2020
Start date: 2022-09-01

Principal investigator: Hajdúch Marián M.D., Ph.D.

EOSC4Cancer will make diverse types of cancer data accessible: genomics, imaging, medical, clinical, environmental and socio-economic. It will use and enhance federated and interoperable systems for securely identifying, sharing, processing and reusing FAIR data across borders and offer them via community-driven analysis environments.

EOSC4Cancer’s well curated data sets will be essential input for reproducible and robust analytics and computational methods – including machine learning and artificial intelligence. EOSC4Cancer’s five use cases will cover the patient journey from cancer prevention over diagnosis to treatment, laying the foundation of data trajectories and workflows for future European Cancer Mission projects.
