Article Synopsis
  • The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has developed various data commons since 2014 to support cancer research, focusing on sharing genomic, proteomic, imaging, and clinical data from NCI-funded studies.
  • This review provides an overview of the different data commons, highlighting their specific features, achievements, and associated challenges.
  • It also addresses how these commons adhere to FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) and align with the NIH's new Data Management and Sharing Policy.

Article Synopsis
  • The NCI's Cloud Resources (CR) are part of the Cancer Research Data Commons (CRDC) and provide analytical tools for cancer research.
  • The three main CRs—Broad Institute FireCloud, Institute for Systems Biology Cancer Gateway, and Seven Bridges Cancer Genomics Cloud—offer access to large cancer datasets and tools for data analysis directly in the cloud.
  • Users can also upload their own data to these platforms, enabling customized analysis workflows and the ability to combine their data with CRDC-hosted resources.

Background: Health systems across the world have implemented reforms that call for a reconsideration of the role of management in hospitals, which is increasingly seen as important for performance. These reorganisation efforts of the hospitals have challenged and supplemented traditional profession-based management with more complex systems of management inspired by the business sector. Whereas there is emerging evidence on how medical professionals in their role as leaders and managers adapt to the new institutional logics of the health care sector with increasing demands for efficiency and budgetary discipline, no previous studies have investigated whether leaders' emphasis on clinical or financial priorities is related to how hospital physicians' view their working situation.
