OUR MISSION
ICART’s mission is to advance scientific research on TNBC and reduce global cancer health disparity. To accomplish this goal ICART:
-
Brings together TNBC investigators with complementary expertise from around the globe, for productive collaboration on joint research projects by engaging in regular correspondence and meetings
-
Encourages the sharing of resources such as TNBC specimens, patient data, reagents, and experimental protocols
-
Facilitates exchange of students and fellows so that they can learn advanced methods in molecular and cell biology, histology, biostatistics, and bioinformatics
-
Performs genetic ancestry typing on TNBC specimens to investigate ancestry-related risk factors and drug targets. Hosts international conferences on TNBC and cancer health disparity to foster academic and clinical research on these topics
