Since its inception, the Cancer Informatics Shared Resource (CISR) has promoted high quality, innovative cancer research by providing members of the UWCCC with an informatics intellectual resource, including advancements in Bioinformatics, Clinical Informatics, Image Analysis and Computational Biology. Recent developments include progress toward new computational facilities and new CISR faculty from the Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics. These faculty bring expertise in genetics/genomics, bioinformatics, imaging and visualization techniques. We have also made significant progress in clinical informatics. The CISR continues to advance in its essential role to contribute to all UWCCC programs by providing technical and intellectual resources that address the specific needs of UWCCC researchers in a cost-effective manner. The CISR accomplishes this in two ways. (1) It promotes multidisciplinary collaboration by providing access to a range of skills and expertise in computational science, informatics, clinical informatics. (2) CISR faculty and professional staff fulfill an important leadership role by tracking and anticipating the needs of the UWCCC research community and then developing specialized informatics facilities to meet those needs. Those collaborations include both clinical and laboratory investigations. The CISR faculty and staff are members of the Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics and are part of the Department's training and research missions. CISR faculty participate in a training grant in bioinformatics funded by the National Library of Medicine. Pre- and postdoctoral students contributed the cancer research activities as part of their training by developing new methods and refining existing methods, at no cost to the CISR. In addition, faculty have their own research grants which also develop new methods, often stimulated by their collaborations with UWCCC investigators. This synergy between methodology research and collaboration has been a hallmark of this shared resource. In addition, bioinformatics faculty have adjunct appointments in the Department of Computer Sciences which also provides access to additional expertise. Finally, since the CISR faculty and staff are part of the Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics, they can also interact with leading biostatisticians. While the CISR has grown substantially over the past five years to nine faculty, two additional new positions already have been allocated for recruitment, and further growth beyond that is expected over the next five years.

自成立以来，癌症信息学共享资源（CISR）促进了高质量，创新， 通过为UWCCC成员提供信息学知识资源来进行癌症研究，包括 生物信息学、临床信息学、图像分析和计算生物学的进展。最近 发展包括新的计算设施和新的CISR教师的进展， 生物统计学和医学信息学系。这些教师带来了遗传学/基因组学方面的专业知识， 生物信息学、成像和可视化技术。我们在临床上也取得了重大进展， 信息学. CISR继续推进其重要作用，为所有UWCCC计划做出贡献， 提供技术和智力资源，以满足UWCCC研究人员的具体需求， 成本效益的方式。CISR通过两种方式实现这一点。(1)它促进多学科 通过提供获得计算科学，信息学， 临床信息学(2)CISR的教师和专业人员通过跟踪和 预测UWCCC研究社区的需求，然后发展专业信息学 设施来满足这些需求。这些合作包括临床和实验室研究。 CISR的教职员工是生物统计学和医学信息学系的成员， 是该部门培训和研究任务的一部分。CISR教师参加培训补助金， 由美国国家医学图书馆资助的生物信息学。前和博士后学生贡献了 通过开发新方法和改进现有方法，将癌症研究活动作为培训的一部分， 而不需要CISR付出任何代价。此外，教师有自己的研究赠款，也开发新的方法， 这通常是因为他们与UWCCC调查人员的合作。这种方法学与 研究和合作一直是这一共享资源的标志。此外，生物信息学系 在计算机科学系有兼职任命，也提供访问 额外的专业知识。最后，由于CISR的教职员工是生物统计学系的一部分， 医学信息学，他们也可以与领先的生物统计学家互动。 虽然CISR在过去五年中大幅增长至9名教师，但还有两个新职位 已经为招聘分配了100万美元，预计未来五年将进一步增长 年
