To identify and benchmark critical core metrics across NCI-designated cancer center shared resources to establish standard evaluation practices and inform federal grant reporting.
Administered a national survey developed by the NACCSR Core Metrics Committee across participating NCI-designated cancer centers.
Assessed institutional metrics across four primary functional domains: facility operations, resource usage, financial performance, and scientific impact.
Identified primary core metrics essential for evaluating shared resource efficiency, administrative oversight, and research enablement across cancer centers.
Established baseline data to guide standardized tracking recommendations for the shared resource components of NCI P30 Cancer Center Support Grants.
