This collaborative workshop will bring together an interdisciplinary group of experts to share challenges, methods, and experiences toward the sustained development of software tools in the research enterprise. Speakers include Dr. Juli Klemm, coordinator of NCI’s Informatics Technology for Research (ITCR) program, and other ITCR principal investigators.

In this “Containers and Workflows Interest Group” webinar, Dr. John Torcivia will discuss an application on the Institute for Systems Biology-Cancer Genomics Cloud where whole genome sequencing was used to generate variant calls for downstream research.

In the virtual Sixth Computational Approaches for Cancer Workshop (CAFCW20), subject matter experts will share their insight on cancer research, including the challenges they faced in fostering collaborations and their ideas for addressing future innovations. NCI Director, Dr. Ned Sharpless, will deliver this year's keynote.

In this seminar, Drs. Nikhil Wagle and Corrie Painter will speak on behalf of “Count Me In,” a non-profit organization that allows researchers to work directly with patients and advocacy groups, along with software engineers and computational scientists, to collect, analyze, and share de-identified data.

In this webinar, UC San Diego’s Dr. Bernhald Palsson will discuss approaches that have progressed the integration of knowledge types into explanatory-artificial-intelligence (x-AI).

Attendees of the fourth Biological Data Science Virtual Meeting can learn more about the Institute for Systems Biology Cancer Genomics Cloud (ISB-CGC) and see how novel cloud-based computing is helping researchers learn more about the BrCA gene and its link to breast cancer. As an NCI Cloud Resource within the CRDC, the ISB-CGC offers researchers a cloud environment and a library of tools and pipelines for analyzing large amounts of data.

In this webinar, UNC-Charlotte’s Dr. Xiuxia Du will demonstrate how the software tool “ADAP” is used for preprocessing untargeted LC-MS and GC-MS metabolomics data. She will also present on “ADAP-KDB,” a spectral knowledge base for tracking unknown mass spectra.

This monthly NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) webinar will give an overview of the programs and projects that provide data to the GDC and review the data types made available through NCI’s Cancer Research Data Commons and NCI Cloud Resources.

In this webinar, Dr. Philip Nelson, director of engineering in Google Research, will discuss how he and his team are using machine learning and advanced computational techniques to address science and healthcare challenges.

Attendees of the 2020 Veterinary Cancer Society (VCS) Virtual Annual Conference can learn more about NCI’s Integrated Canine Data Commons (ICDC) and how to access its collection of comparative oncology data at the 3-day virtual exhibit hall.
