The NCI clinical and translational informatics program allows for targeted bioinformatics capabilities facilitating interoperability, collaboration, and integration across applications, as well as easing reporting burdens through harmonization of implementable data standards. NCI data collection standards made possible through the eCRF Harmonization Project provide the semantic tools needed to integrate and interoperate data across multiple systems and entities both at the NCI and the extramural and pharmacologic communities. This talk will review the challenges and benefits of developing, implementing and governing standards use across the NCI cooperative groups. The speakers will also discuss intramural adoption and provide updates on two new initiatives to facilitate standard adoption among NCI-supported cancer research institutes.
