Info
titlecaNanoLab Survey

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Office of Cancer Nanotechnology Research (OCNR) is working together with the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT) to submit nanotechnology data to the caNanoLab Data Repository.

The objective is to curate cancer nanotechnology data under defined conditions in order to expedite the use of these data in the development of novel agents for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. In order to do this, a survey is being conducted to learn what data sources are most relevant to you and to identify gaps in the caNanoLab database.

Introduction
Introduction
The cancer Nanotechnology Laboratory portal (caNanoLab) is a web-based portal designed to facilitate data sharing in the biomedical nanotechnology research community to expedite and validate the use of nanotechnology in biomedicine. caNanoLab provides support for the annotation of nanomaterials with characterizations resulting from physico-chemical and in vitro assays and for the sharing of these characterizations and associated nanotechnology protocols in a secure fashion.

caNanoLab provides access to information on:

  • Nanotechnology protocols in biomedicine
  • Composition of nanomaterials
  • Functions of nanomaterials (for example, therapeutic, targeting, diagnostic imaging)
  • Physico-chemical characterizations including size, molecular weight, shape, physical state, surface chemistry, purity, solubility, and relaxivity
  • In Vitro characterizations such as cytotoxicity, blood contact properties, oxidative stress, and immune cell functions
  • Publications and reports from nanotechnology studies in biomedicine

caNanoLab is was developed as a collaboration between the the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT), the the NCI Nanotechnology Characterization Laboratory (NCL), and the NCI Office of Cancer Nanotechnology Research (OCNR).

Data Curation

Data curation is a key component for ensuring that data is appropriately annotated to facilitate data sharing in a semantically interoperable fashion. Data curation activities on caNanoLab are currently performed by the NCI Cancer Centers of Nanotechnology Excellence (CCNEs)Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer Data Coordinators and the NCI data curator. Data curators assist in extracting data from publications and nanotechnology experiments, annotating extracted data, and providing overall data quality control. If you are interested in submitting your data into caNanoLab, contact caNanoLab-Support@ISB-CGC.org.

Detailed data curation steps are explained in the Curation of Biomedical Data into ISA-TAB-Nano and caNanoLab Standard Operating Procedure.
