*Abstract
The close collaboration between basic researchers and clinicians is mandatory for the prevention and early diagnosis of cancer as well as detection of prognostic biological markers and the development of molecular targeted therapy in cancer management. 
  Seoul National University Cancer Hospital which was opened in March, 2011 has developed a web-based cancer research collaboration network, so called "Center for Cancer Research Collaboration" to integrate the basic researchers' task forces and the clinical resources where 22 clincal cancer centers are integrated in the Seoul National Cancer Hospital. This networking system will accelerate the mutual communication between top-notch basic researchers and world-class clinicians to manage cancer patients all over the world. This system is designed to make a fast track to proceed the active collaboration between basic researchers and clinicians with the cooperation of Tumor and Blood Banks  of Seoul National University Hospital as well as the Institutional Review Board of Seoul National University Hospital.
  I would like to briefly introduce how this system works and what we can do with this integrated system. At the end of the presentation,  I also would like to briefly introduce possible collaboration in my fields of interest regarding Central Nervous System Tumors and Parkinson's disease.
