The Familial Cancer Database (FaCD) is a free online tool for health professionals that supports the genetic differential diagnosis in cancer. It has been developed at the Department of Genetics, University Medical Center Groningen, the Netherlands (www.geneticsgroningen.nl). This group lists contents updates and is a forum where user stories and possible improvements in FaCD are discussed. If you are an expert on a particular syndrome then you can contact the Group Owner to adopt that syndrome file and help manage the database contents. « less
