This document describes an application currently being constructed with
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Office SharePoint Server 2007 (OSS)
that will enable collaboration between cancer researchers called the C-ME
project (Collaborative Molecular Modeling Environment). Office 2007 with
Visual Studio Tools for Office v3.0 (VSTO) will be used to generate reports
from the information stored in OSS. The C-ME project is being built for
cancer researchers. Curing cancer is a complex and lengthy process, and the
collaborative tools researchers need don't exist. This document describes the

approaches being taken to bridge the gap.
