Amazon Web Services awards $170,000 grant package to Colorectal Cancer Alliance.

Amazon Web Services has awarded a grant package worth $170,000 to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance under AWS's Imagine Grant program, which supports 501(c) nonprofit organizations in the United States who are using technology to solve the world's most pressing challenges. The grant package, which includes $150,000 in unrestricted funding and $20,000 in AWS Credits, will support the Alliance's Project Cure CRC initiative to connect and analyze real-world patient and clinical data across institutions, enabling personalized treatment pathways, accelerating innovation and establishing a learning cycle that translates research insights back to patient care, the Alliance said. Alongside the Alliance's Direct Research Funding program, Project Cure CRC establishes a continuous learning cycle where real-world clinical and patient-reported data directly inform research, and discoveries are translated back to improve care. Together, these integrated components advance outcomes and equity in colorectal cancer care, the group said.
