Canadian Tumour Repository Network

Canadian Tumour Repository Network

We worked with The Canadian Tumour Repository Network (CTRNET) to develop the CTRNET.ca web site. The web site is meant for anyone interested in Tumour Banking and it specifically targets cancer researchers in Canada.

Briefly, the site allows cancer researchers to register for the member area. A researcher can then provide their information and immediately query over 7000 tumour bank items (tumour tissue, slides, blood, etc...) that are being stored around Canada. The researcher can then request various items from the tumour banks and a shipping order if sent to the CTRNET and the tumour banks. Once a shipping order is finalized, the tumour samples are en route to the researcher.

Prior to the CTRNET rolling out the new system, a researcher had no idea about what materials were available around Canada. In order to find out, she would have to call various tumour banks and request material information. This process could take days. Now, it takes minutes.

On the flip side, tumour banks can upload their inventory directly to our system. Our system self updates as the tumour banks provide data. Once updated, the researchers are then searching across current data.

There are several other tools in the members area as well, including message forums for collaborative idea sharing and questions and a learning management system that CTRNET will be building content for over the next few years.
