Pattern.org

Pattern.org is a platform bridging the gap between cancer patients and scientists. Pattern.org enables cancer patients to directly donate their tumor tissue and medical data to high-impact research projects at no cost to them. In this way, Pattern.org empowers patients to be directly involved in cancer research. Tissue and medical data shared by patients through Pattern.org help scientists develop next-generation cancer models, which will be made widely available to the research community. Using these models, researchers can identify cancer’s key points of vulnerability and accelerate drug development. The future of cancer treatment lies in making treatments specific to patients. To get there, patients and researchers need to join forces in understanding the disease. Pattern.org is building an ecosystem that brings stakeholders together, giving researchers the opportunity to identify paths to improve patient outcomes. Pattern.org was launched by the Rare Cancer Research Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to curing rare cancers through strategic investments and collaborations that catalyze effective research and accelerate the deployment of promising therapies.
