Abstract

There are many impediments to progress in cancer research. Insufficient or low quality data and computational tools that are dispersed among various sites are one of them. In this paper we present an integrated system that combines all stages of cancer studies, from gathering of clinical data, through elaborate patient questionnaires and bioinformatics tools, to data warehousing and preparation of analysis reports.
