Book Synopsis Ontario Cancer Institute by : Ernest A. McCulloch
Download or read book Ontario Cancer Institute written by Ernest A. McCulloch and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2003 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Ontario Cancer Institute Ernest McCulloch discusses how the institute, dedicated to the goal of reducing the burden of cancer, continuously strove for excellence and shows how both original and collaborative work were encouraged within a supportive environment. To achieve this goal the institute divided its operation into four strands: two of the strands were the research areas – the study of advanced radiation therapy and biology, which worked separatively but cooperatively; a third was patient care; and the fourth element was leadership, provided by the clinical chiefs, the heads of the research divisions, and the administration, in particular the institute's first administrator, John Law. Together these strands helped create a philosophy that made the Ontario Cancer Institute unique and provided the basis for its national and international success. Essential to these successes was a new graduate department, Medical Biophysics, based in the University of Toronto School of Graduate Studies. This department, which provided an innovative, research-based doctoral and masters program, meant that the OCI could accurately be described as a centre for cancer treatment, research, and education. McCulloch describes how the first quantitative assay for stem cells played a major role in bringing OCI research to the international stage as well as influencing other science and much of the clinical thinking in the Institute. Other major advances that brought international recognition have been the identification of the mechanisms that allow cancer cells to resist death from the effects of a variety of different tumours and the isolation of the gene that encodes the T cell receptor, a critical part of the immune apparatus for dealing with foreign cells and viruses. McCulloch also details how lack of space to meet growing demands was a continuing source of frustration and disagreement, and how sometimes serious interpersonal problems hindered the forward thrust of development. Describing these events as well as institute's successes, he provides an insight into the history of Canada's premier cancer research centre.

Book excerpt: Using the Ontario Cancer Registry and other clinical and administrative data held by Cancer Care Ontario, the Plan provides a new and expanded profile of cancer services within the entire cancer system in Ontario. [...] Growing evidence for transformation It is clear from the evidence, as well as from the results of cancer planning, that the delivery of cancer services needs to be transformed to meet the current and future demand for cancer care in Ontario. [...] The system must improve guideline coverage across the spectrum of cancer treatment, and make concerted efforts to accelerate the uptake of existing and future guidelines and Cancer Care Ontario must continue to invest in systems and tools to support and monitor uptake. [...] Priorities will include the CQCO public report on a core set of indicators of cancer system performance (scheduled for release in early 2005); the development, collection and dissemination of information about cancer risks and screening to support Cancer 2020; and selected program-related performance indicators • Expand the scope and quality of standardized data collected by Cancer Care Ontario fo [...] Action Plan • Cancer Care Ontario will lead the development of a provincial cancer research council to forge stronger collaboration and co-ordination of cancer research efforts across Ontario Executive Summary 21 The cost of improving the cancer system - A targeted investment strategy The Ontario Cancer Plan is about investing in the future.
