The Gastric Cancer Registry combines clinical and genomic data from individuals diagnosed with gastric cancer and those at increased risk. Researchers around the globe now have free access to a wealth of information, including extensive and detailed tumor data, through the Genome Explorer web-based interface. 

Early-stage research seed grants kickstart initiatives at top research centers across the country, providing crucial support during the pivotal early stages. Our funding helps groundbreaking studies gain momentum, often leading to major grants that sustain and expand their important work.

Early-career researchers struggle to secure funding for gastric cancer studies. The Ben Feinstein Memorial Research Scholar Award addresses the gap in early-stage research funding with three-year grants that empower promising young scientists to develop strong research portfolios, positioning them to earn major grants and advance their work.

Findings from foundation-funded studies are peer-reviewed and published in respected medical and scientific journals. The growing library of published papers is available on our website.
