Description:Excerpt from Annual Report of Program Activities: National Cancer Institute, Fiscal Year 1982 The Office of the Assistant Director (AD) administers the functions of the President's Cancer Panel, which convened four meetings during the year. The Panel has served as a forum for both the scientific community and public, and has affected both the initiation of new program priorities and implementation of existing priorities. The AD serves as the Executive Secretary to the Panel. In addition to meetings held in the Washington/Bethesda area, during 1982 the President's Cancer Panel conducted public meetings on the east coast at the Harvard University School of Public Health, and on the west coast at the University of California in Los Angeles. At these meetings the Panel examined alternatives and options proposed by scientists regarding possible modifications of the peer review and grants award mechanisms at the NCI and the NIH. The AD is also Director of the Office of Medical Applications of Cancer Research (OMACR) and maintains liaison with the NIH Office of Medical Applications of Research (OMAR). During 1982 OMACR processed numerous evaluations of patent applications from grantees and contractors, and also supported Consensus Development programs and technology transfer activities at the NIH. In November, 1981, NCI personnel participated in the planning and promulgation of a 3-day, Consensus Development Conference on CT Scanning of the Brain held at the NIH. Other activities of the Office of the AD this year have included establishment and co-chairmanship of the NCI Radiation Coordinating Group, and participation and liaison with the Interagency Radiation Research Committee, chaired by the Assistant Secretary for Health. The planning and implementation of a new telephone accessible information system has also been undertaken, with the aim to provide protocol data relative to the cancer therapy clinical trials currently in progress. The Office of the AD has coordinated and supervised the integration of resources into a computer system referred to as PDG (Protocol Data Query System) intended to be of benefit to both physicians and patients as well as to researchers in cancer treatment.
