Mid-Atlantic Shared Services Consortium (MASSC)

In the spirit of the “NCI’s Roadmap” the Mid-Atlantic Shared Services Consortium (MASSC) was established to provide our researchers with easy, reciprocal access to the specialized, technical services, equipment and expertise available at the 4 participating institutions.

Each institution provides investigators at consortium member institutions the same pricing researchers at their home institution pay.

This Shared Services consortium is a demonstration of good financial stewardship and collaborative science in action.

3 member institutions manager their cores via the iLab platform. Extending this reciprocal access to our investigators via iLab is just one more means of enhancing the impact of this consortium.

Member Institutions:

  • Georgetown University Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center
  • Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center
  • University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center
  • University of Virginia Cancer Center

Currently, Georgetown's cores are not managed via the iLab platform but they can be accessed here
