The St. Anna Children's Cancer Research Institute (CCRI) is a mid-sized research organization based in central Vienna, Austria, focused on pediatric cancer. It seeks to improve outcomes by developing and refining diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic strategies through a blend of basic, translational, and clinical research that centers on the biology of childhood tumors. The institute unites teams across tumor genomics and epigenomics, immunology, molecular and cell biology, bioinformatics, and clinical research to ensure scientific advances address clinical needs and support translation into practice. It collaborates with external institutions to advance its work within Austria’s biomedical research ecosystem, including partnerships with the Medical University of Vienna, CeMM, IMBA, and the Institute of Molecular Pathology. A recent development is a December 2024 partnership with Cloudflight to digitalize and automate the donation process, reflecting ongoing collaboration with external partners.
