Poster Session: “Multi-omics Characterization of Microtubule-actin Crosslinking Factor Using the ISB-Cancer Genomics Cloud” at ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics

The Institute for Systems Biology-Cancer Genomics Cloud (ISB-CGC), one of the three available NCI Cloud Resources, will co-present a virtual poster at the 11th ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics. The poster will show how the researchers used the rich data sets within NCI’s Cloud Resource to find evidence of microtubule-actin crosslinking factor 1 (MACF1) within gynecological cancers.

As an NCI Cloud Resource, the ISB-CGC provides researchers online access to the vast data sets stored by the NCI Cancer Research Data Commons. Leveraging ISB-CGC cloud computing, Coppin State University, General Dynamics Information Technology, and ISB were able to perform a cohort analysis across diverse multi-omic data sets to gain novel insight into how MACF1 regulation could influence the progression of cancer.

The poster will be available virtually during the conference.
