Researchers can now submit new chordoma cell lines to the Chordoma Foundation Cell Line Panel. The Foundation will award a $5,000 prize for each validated cell line that is included in panel, with aims of adding an additional 10 cell lines to the panel within the next year.

Cell lines are a critically important tool for cancer researcher. By providing a standardized set of high-quality cell lines to researchers, the Chordoma Foundation Cell Line Panel will make the entire field of chordoma research more efficient and effective, and will accelerate the pace of treatment discovery and development.
