Structure: Working and Analysis Groups

Steering Committee

There is a steering committee (SC) composed of the PIs from all the partner groups

Members: Steve Bova, Daniel Brewer, Rob Bristow, Benedikt Brors, Adam Butler, Geraldine Cancel-Tassin, Maggie Cheang, Colin Cooper, Niall Corcoran, Olivier Cussenot, Ros Eeles, Chris Foster, Clarissa Gerhauser, Vincent Gnanapragasam, Andreas Gruber, Vanessa Hayes, Hansen He, Chris Hovens, Jan Korbel, Zsofia Kote-Jarai, Alastair Lamb, Massimo Loda, Andy Lynch, Luigi Marchioni, Tony Papenfuss, Bernard Pope, Jüri Reimand, Chris Sander, Guido Sauter, Thorsten Schlomm, Karina Sorensen, Theo Van Der Kwast, Tapio Visakorpi, David Wedge, Joachim Weischenfeldt

Chair: Ros Eeles, Colin Cooper

Working Groups

There are two subcommittees (working groups, WGs) which report to the steering committee

Technical Working Group

The technical WG is responsible for the data collation infrastructure and analysis mechanisms. There is a number of sub-working groups within the technical working group inclusing: Methylation, RNA, QC, and germline.

Chairs: Joachim Weischenfeldt, Bernie Pope, Daniel Brewer.

Clinical and Pathology Working Group

The clinical and pathology WG is responsible for the clinical data dictionary structure and collation of clinical questions. It is also responsible for the creation of an international pathology review network and collation of pathology questions.

Chair: rotating

Analysis Groups

Analysis groups based around similar subprojects that have been proposed. This is so we can work together to produce high quality research and produce the optimal outcome from the data. The current analysis working groups are:

  • CombiMets (leads: Chris Hovens, Benedikt Brors)
  • Drivers and Functional Interpretation (leads: Juri Remand, David Wedge)
  • Ethnicity (leads:Vanessa Hayes, Oliver Cussenot)
  • Evolution (leads:David Wedge, Benedikt Brors)
  • Germline (leads:Ros Eeles, Geraldine Cancel-Tassin)
  • Mutational Processes (leads:Joachim Weischenfeldt, Juri Reimand)
  • Non Genomic Analyses (leads:Dan Brewer, Neil Corcoran)
  • Pathology and Genomics (leads:Massimo Loda, Rob Bristow)
  • Prognostic Markers (leads:Michael Fraser, Vincent Gnanapragasm)
  • Subtyping (leads:Dan Woodcock, Tony Papenfuss)
  • Methylation and Epigenomics (leads:Clarissa Gerhauser, Pavlo Lutsik)
  • RNA analysis (leads:Tony Papenfuss, Luigi Marchionni)
  • Hypoxia and the Tumor Microenvironment (leads: David Wedge, Lena v. Voithenberg)
