About OSTP
The OSTP works closely with individual CCR investigators, Faculties, Core Facilities, and NCI technology development programs to identify new technologies and resources that will expedite the translation of basic research findings into new therapies, diagnostics, and preventative agents. The Office serves as an initial point of contact for companies, providing them with information on major CCR research initiatives or other partnership opportunities, and advising them on the available mechanisms for collaborating with CCR scientists. The OSTP identifies new technologies being developed outside the CCR, and creates means for making them available to CCR scientists. Lastly, the Office communicates about core and technology-related resources through the creation of web sites and databases, and promotes training and education through seminars, workshops, and symposia on technologies and partnerships.
