Our Collaborators

Collaboration is at the heart of MCGI, which brings cancer genomic testing, education, and drug access infrastructure to Maine and beyond.

MCGI works with oncology providers across Maine through partnerships with hospital systems, cancer centers and independent practices. We continue to collaborate with these sites through research studies, genomic tumor board offerings and/or clinical support.
