NCI-funded researchers combined long-term, patient-outcome data with pathology slides from people with colorectal cancer to develop a machine learning tool, called QuantCRC. Using QuantCRC, researchers could predict if a patient’s cancer would recur based on analysis of a single hematoxylin and eosin stained slide of the tumor.

NIH wants to hear from you about the NIH Public Access Plan, which shows how to accelerate access to federally supported scientific data and research.
