The following working groups were identified:

Imaging WG: Paula Jacobs, Amy LeBlanc (bridge to clin/path WG)

Goals: The overarching objective of this WG is to provide the comparative cancer research community with guidelines and best practices for the collection, formatting and reporting of imaging data collected from canine companion animals with naturally-occurring cancers into the Integrated Canine Data Commons (ICDC). This is to facilitate the utilization and analysis of such data by stakeholders in the cancer research community to facilitate dog-to-human translational research and advancement of knowledge in the comparative space.

Clinical/pathologic standards WG: Renee Chambers (primary co-chair), Amy LeBlanc (bridge to imag. WG), Cheryl London (secondary co-chair), Deborah Knapp

Genomics WG: Dawn Duval , Allison Heath (co-chair), Elaine Ostrander, Shaying Zhou (co-chair), Heather Gardner

The goals of the ICDC Genomics Best Practices Subcommittee Guidelines are to:
·        Provide an overview of next generation sequencing (NGS) study design, assays and analysis approaches (focusing on genomics and transcriptomics) utilized by diverse canine cancer research teams alongside annotation of validation studies, canine-specific tool needs, and parameters.
·        Identify common elements across published analyses.
·        Establish general principles in canine cancer genomics best practices modeled on human cancer genomics best practice principles.
·        Identify gaps in canine cancer genomics best practices and propose solutions.

Immunology: Toby Hecht, Cheryl London (primary co-chair), Deborah Knapp (secondary co-chair), Connie Sommers, Shaying Zhao
