Add all cancer registries worldwide

Open breck7 opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

According to https://www.iccp-portal.org/cancer-registries

"Worldwide, there are more than 700 cancer registries."

We currently only have 1: https://cancerdb.com/search.html?q=select+type%0D%0Awhere+type+includes+tumorRegistry

@breck7 : There are over 150 countries and the source cited says there are over 700 registries world wide. Approximate average of 4 cancer registries per country should be provided.

There seems to be no ready made list. Sourcing it will take time, should i continue ?

@SRS-WRKS I would not recommend doing this one by hand. I will be calling some people to see if we can import someone else's list! Sorry I should start adding more details to these issues.

@breck7 : I have already done some groundwork. Can i contribute as much as i am able, manually ?

Your team of people can do all the hifi stuff.

Of course @SRS-WRKS ! I still believe nothing beats human expertise!
