The NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) is a massive project to provide the Cancer Research community a repository and computational platform for researchers who need to better understand cancer, its clinical progression and response to therapy. Not at the level of a tumor, but inside DNA molecules, which collectively are considered the instructions for human life. It is an extraordinarily complex endeavor.
In the Genomic Data Commons Podcast in the NCI Personal Genomics Podcast Series, learn from GDC pioneering leaders about the early days of the GDC and how it has become a valuable resource.
