Atlanta-based Northside Hospital Cancer Institute joined the Caris Life Sciences Precision Oncology Alliance last week.
The alliance includes 69 cancer centers and academic institutions. Members work to establish and optimize molecular testing standards, according to a July 22 news release from the hospital.
"We are thrilled to welcome Northside Hospital Cancer Institute to the POA network," said Chadi Nabhan, MD, chair of the Caris Precision Oncology Alliance. "As one of the nation's largest cancer programs, and the statewide leader of the National Cancer Institute Oncology Research Program (NCORP), NHCI’s mission and vision aligns with the POA's goal to advance cancer research and treatment for all patients."
