Unique Identity of the NCI’s IRP Distinctive critical mass and unique programmatic integration of basic, clinical and epidemiologic scientists within a unified environment Review and reward structure that allows long-term, high-risk basic and clinical research Allows and encourages rapid changes in direction and response to new opportunities and national priorities Ability to fuse basic science with the newest technologies for novel clinical trials within the state of the art Clinical Research Center Ability to recruit diverse cohorts of patients to perform science-driven, concept-based clinical trials Distinctive and highly acclaimed interdisciplinary training programs for the next generation of biomedical scientists Mandate and freedom to collaborate widely and provide leadership for new basic and clinical research paradigms Higher stringency for avoidance of conflicts of interest than many other research institutions
7
Distinctive Qualities of CCR Critical mass of basic and clinical scientists solving complex scientific problems Can quickly redeploy resources to address: (a) NCI mission goals (b) Urgent public need (c) New opportunities Access to NIH Clinical Center

The NCI Intramural Clinical Research Program The NCI intramural clinical program is not a large volume, full- service cancer center The NCI intramural clinical program is the largest cancer- focused clinical research center (CRC) in the world, capable of performing patient-intensive clinical research focused on developing new approaches for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. The NCI intramural clinical program is an important component of the nation’s overall cancer program
