Dr. Eliezer Van Allen will describe how a patient’s cancer genome can be used to guide individualized treatment choices for precision medicine. He will examine how to identify treatment resistance mechanisms and show how certain phenotypic patterns can be paired with new modes of computation to further inform treatment decisions.

In this webinar, MD Anderson Cancer Center Professor, Dr. Nicholas Navin, will present on breast cancer evolution through the lens of single-cell genomics.

Looking to leverage data sets that are available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information’s servers? In this webinar, Mr. Gargi Chhatwal will demo Amazon’s Athena: a serverless, interactive query service that makes it easy to analyze this data in Amazon Simple Storage Service.

This presentation will provide an overview of the “CompTox Chemicals Dashboard,” illustrating not only how it has developed into an integrated data hub for environmental data, but also how it provides a foundation to support both exposomics and metabolomics research.

This webinar’s speaker, Dr. Nilanjan Chatterjee, is known for foundational and methodological contributions to multiple areas of modern biomedical data science, including large-scale analysis of genetic associations, gene-environment interactions, polygenic risk scores, and predictive model building by synthesis of information from multiple data sources.

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Data Science Working Group is hosting this 2-day workshop to bring together members of the genomics and machine learning (ML) research communities. Discussions will examine the opportunities and obstacles underlying the application of ML methods to basic genome sciences and genomic medicine.

Industries, academia, and other organizations who are interested in competing for the contract to operate the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) are invited to attend “FFRDC Industry Day.” This will be an opportunity to learn more about the FNLCR’s mission, scientific programs/capabilities (like cancer data science), and the laboratory’s management, facilities, and business operations.

Dr. Charles Wang will address the need for guidance in selecting algorithms for accurate biological interpretations of varied data types acquired with different single-cell RNA sequencing platforms.

In this installment of the NCI Imaging and Informatics Community Webinar, Dr. Saurabh Jha will share hypothetical case studies and the legal scholarship surrounding the question: who gets sued when the algorithm makes a diagnostic error?

The NCI Genomic Data Commons' (GDC's) upcoming webinar will introduce new users to its portal and library of computational resources. GDC experts will also answer questions about the GDC and genomic analyses and also share upcoming features of the system. As a component within NCI’s Cancer Research Data Commons (CRDC), the GDC is a knowledge system for cancer that helps researchers share and access genomic, clinical, and biospecimen data and facilitates precision oncology.
