ACF FOCUSES ON FURTHERING RESEARCH IN COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY, WHICH IS THE STUDY OF CANCERS THAT OCCUR SIMILARLY IN BOTH COMPANION ANIMALS AND HUMANS.TO FUND AND DEVELOP RESEARCH FOCUSED ON THE BIOLOGIC SIMILARITY OF CANCER IN PETS AND PEOPLE THAT WILL EXPEDITE THERAPEUTIC AND PREVENTATIVE BENEFITS FOR BOTH. ALSO, TO INFORM THE PUBLIC AND THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY ABOUT THE BIOLOGIC SIMILARITY OF CANCER IN PETS AND PEOPLE, AND TO COMMUNICATE THE WAYS IN WHICH COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY WILL ACCELERATE THE TREATMENT, PREVENTION AND ULTIMATE ERADICATION OF CANCER. THE CANINE CANCER GENOME PROJECT (CCGP) SPONSORED BY BLUE BUFFALO FOUNDATION AND ANIMAL CANCER FOUNDATION SEEKS TO MAP THE SEVEN MOST COMMON CANINE CANCER TUMORS AND TO PLACE THE DATASETS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN FOR USE BY ALL CANCER RESEARCHERS. 4 4 2 15 0 0 268277 310790 0 0 21691 4986 11442 431 301410 316207 52500 500000 0 0 167562 176812 0 0 100142 134240 130502 354302 807314 -52892 -491107 1342259 876698 40701 18093 1301558 858605 X ANIMAL CANCER FOUNDATION ("ACF") IS DEDICATED TO FINDING NEW TREATMENTS AND EVENTUAL CURES FOR CANCER BY FUNDING RESEARCH IN AND INCREASING PUBLIC AWARENESS OF COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY, THE STUDY OF NATURALLY OCCURRING, SIMILAR CANCERS IN PEOPLE AND IN COMPANION ANIMALS. 0 0 640312 500000 ANIMAL CANCER FOUNDATION HAS EMBARKED ON THE CANINE CANCER GENOME PROJECT ("CCGP") SPONSORED BY BLUE BUFFALO FOUNDATION TO ENABLE A MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATIONAL COLLABORATION TO MAP CANINE CANCER GENOMES FROM SAMPLES DONATED TO ACF BY THE CANINE CANCER ONCOLOGY GENOMICS CONSORTIUM (CCOGC) AND TO PLACE THOSE DATASETS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN FOR USE BY ALL CANCER RESEARCH. THIS MULTI-YEAR PROJECT WILL ENABLE CANCER SCIENTISTS TO BUILD MORE ROBUST COMPARATIVE DATASETS AND TO FURTHER CANCER RESEARCH IN PETS AND PEOPLE. AFTER A COMPETITIVE SELECTION PROCESS, THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE WAS SELECTED AS THE PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS FOR THIS PROJECT.ACF COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY GRANTS AWARDS ARE RESEARCH GRANTS OF $50,000 FOR ONE TO TWO YEAR COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY RESEARCH THAT IS IDENTIFIED BY A SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY COUNCIL AS BEST-IN-FIELD EARLY DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL HAVE RESULTS POISED TO ATTRACT FURTHER GOVERNMENT AND LARGE INSTITUTIONAL FUNDING AND THAT ENCOURAGE OPEN SHARE DISCOVERY TO SPEED NEW SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION AND TREATMENT TO THE CLINICAL SETTING.
