About the Event
OncoMX is a knowledge base of cancer biomarkers that enables searches of unified cancer mutation and expression datasets. This is a collaborative project between The George Washington University, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, and the University of Delaware. The objective is to benefit basic cancer research, promote efficient consumption of information by end-users, and ultimately improve biomarker and cancer detection capabilities. The unification of multiple cancer datasets allows users to explore or generate hypotheses within one database, execute targeted searches, and compare data sources. OncoMX is designed to support a broad range of cancer research initiatives for the enrichment of cancer biomarker detection.
This talk will also showcase the OncoMX data model applied to biomarkers for COVID-19
