OCCPR: A Leader in Cancer Proteomics and Proteogenomics

The mission of the NCI’s Office of Cancer Clinical Proteomics Research (OCCPR) is to improve prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer by enhancing the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of cancer, advance proteome and proteogenome science and technology development through community resources (data and reagent), and accelerate the translation of molecular findings into the clinic. This is achieved through OCCPR-supported programs such as the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), partnerships with Federal agencies, and collaborations with international organizations/institutions.

Be Part of Tomorrow’s Next-Gen Big Data Scientists (BD-STEP Training Fellowship Announcement)

"Big data" is a term to describe data sets so large or complex that traditional data processing strategies are inadequate. As continued advancements in biomedical technologies generate an increasing amount of patient data, administration of patient-centered care will depend, in part, on the ability...

CPTAC Researchers Develop A Freely Available Database for Phosphosite-Specific Signature Analysis

It is no coincidence that one cellular process is mentioned time and time again in discussions of cell-signaling pathways in cancer - that is phosphorylation. Since its discovery, it has come to be recognized as a global regulator of many intracellular processes such as growth, proliferation, and...
