Working Groups
CGC Working Groups create evidence-based reviews and practice considerations, to positively impact the appropriate utilization and reimbursement of genomics testing in cancer. In this forum, working groups bring together members of our community of all disciplines to facilitate teamwork, personal growth, professional growth and scientific achievements. We are grateful to the Working Groups who have completed their projects, and appreciate the authors for their time and dedication.
