The Directory of On-Going Research in Cancer Epidemiology is an annual compendium of current research in cancer epidemiology. The 1991 edition (15th in the series) contains abstracts of 1147 projects being carried out in over 80 countries, and reflects the huge range of epidemiological research into the distribution, causes, and prevention of cancer around the world. Each project is included in up to eight separate indexes, enabling rapid searches for current studies fitting almost any description. In addition, with the help of an IBM-compatible diskette, it is possible to search the indexes simultaneously, using specially developed software, in order to speed up searching and making searches more efficient. The eight indexes are: name of investigator, keywords, cancer site(s), study type (cohort, case-control, etc.), country, chemical exposure, occupational exposure, and cancer registry. The directory also includes comprehensive lists of 253 population-based cancer registries and over 200 biological material banks, all available for collaboration in epidemiological research. The address (plus telephone and telex) of nearly 1000 principal investigators is provided to improve contact between research workers.
