The Participant Engagement and Cancer Genome Sequencing (PE-CGS) Network is part of the Cancer Moonshot Initiative that is intended to accelerate cancer research. Specifically, this network falls under a scientific priority designated by the Blue Ribbon Panel as Recommendation A: Establish a Network for Direct Patient Engagement. The PE-CGS Network will function as a collaborative network to address common issues, share best practices and lessons learned, and utilize common methods where appropriate.
