National Cancer Institute Data Sharing |
|
We have received a survey request inquiring about data sharing and data management across the cancer research data landscape. While UNLV is not a designated Cancer Center, if any faculty are working on projects that are focused on cancer research this is directed to them. If you are working on any cancer research, would you please answer the questions, approximately 15 minutes to complete since this would assist NIH National Cancer Institute in gathering information?
Please complete the webform before April 3, 2023.
