Abstract
Development of the Bharat Cancer Genome Atlas (BCGA) is poised to be a comprehensive genomic database which will not only deepen our scientific understanding of the unique molecular landscape of cancers prevalent in India but also provide the essential foundation required to facilitate the development of targeted therapies, enable personalized treatment strategies, and foster the creation of more effective early detection methods specifically tailored for the Indian population. The open-access nature of the BCGA is a core strength, designed to democratize access to this vital information, thereby empowering researchers to make new discoveries, enabling clinicians to provide more precise care, and allowing patients and their families to engage more fully in their health journey.
