AI for Genomics and Personalised Medicine call (DT-TDS-04-2020)
We have been approached by John Rowell, the Head of International Research Development Direction Recherche, Instuitute Gustave Roussy (IGR) (John.ROWELL@gustaveroussy.fr) to inform us that the Karolinska and IGR are creating an application for the AI for Genomics and Personalised Medicine call (DT-TDS-04-2020).
They would like to have ELIXIR Node participation to contribute to developing cross border infrastructure for sharing clinical genomics standards. Their proposal will work towards learning and validation of predictive cancer biomarkers in a multi-center federated framework.
If your Node is interested in joining this consortia, please contact John Hancock (john.hancock@elixir-europe.org) and please inform Juan Arenas (juan.arenas@elixir-europe.org).
