cancer care engineering

Site: http://cceHUB.org

The cceHUB was created by funding from the U.S. Army Medical and Materiel Command and the Regenstrief Foundation to support the the Cancer Care Engineering project. Cancer Care Engineering (CCE) is a network of investigators across Indiana with a vision to revolutionize the current paradigms of cancer prevention, detection, treatment and care delivery by focusing on translating cancer research into clinical practice and focusing new research on the most important gaps in the cancer care system.

The mission of the CCE project is to integrate clinical, scientific and engineering disciplines into a systems-oriented approach to cancer care to foster more efficient, personalized and therefore more effective treatments and prevention strategies. We will promote the joint creation and sharing of educational materials, modules and experiences at all degree levels for use in the education and training of engineers, cancer biologists, health services researchers, medical practitioners in academia, industry and private practice. cceHUB will draw on the R&D output of projects integral to Purdue University, Indiana University School of Medicine, the Regenstrief Institute and the Roudebush Veterans Administration Medical Center, and the collective work of our colleagues in the field.
