Rare Cancer Research Foundation

Pattern.org is a groundbreaking platform that allows rcrf to work directly with cancer patients across the country to identify patients eligible to donate tissue to research, educate those patients on research opportunities, consent them into such research programs, and then coordinate the bio-logistics of moving their tissue from their local hospitals to world-class research institutions. Pattern.org was launched with great success in 2016, and in 2024, delivered high quality, viable, living rare cancer tissue from both academic and community hospitals across the u.s. To critical,innovative research initiatives.

A program initiated in 2023 to develop a unified platform to host combined molecular and clinical rare cancer data which will be shared broadly with the cancer research community.
