Dr. Eytan Ruppin
June 29, 2022 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. ET

Eytan Ruppin M.D., Ph.D.

The NCI Center for Cancer Research’s Dr. Eytan Ruppin will present on “SELECT,” a computational approach that aims to identify clinically relevant synthetic lethal interactions and then harnesses them to predict patient response to cancer therapy from the bulk tumor transcriptome.

Obi Griffith
June 15, 2022 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. ET

Obi L. Griffith, Ph.D.

Dr. Obi L. Griffith will discuss CIViC, an open access, open source, community-driven web resource for clinical interpretation of variants in cancer. The goal of this resource is to enable precision medicine by providing an educational forum for dissemination of knowledge and active discussion of the clinical significance of cancer genome alterations.

Svitlana Volkova
June 01, 2022 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. ET

Svitlana Volkova, Ph.D.

Dr. Svitlana Volkova will discuss a suite of augmented intelligence solutions powered by Artificial Intelligence models. She’ll show how these models can be used to detect, anticipate, and reason with technical expertise and capability development to analyze and extract knowledge from large amounts of unstructured scientific literature data.

Clemens Grassberge
April 20, 2022 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. ET

Clemens Grassberger, Ph.D.

Dr. Grassberger will highlight the current computational and mathematical approaches for modeling the impact of radiotherapy on the immune system, as well as designing the next generation of combination trials.
