Genomic Profiling Showcase:
Jackson Laboratory
The Jackson Laboratory is an independent, nonprofit biomedical research institution dedicated to contributing to a future of better health care based on the unique genetic makeup of each individual.
Accelerating Interpretation Of Precision Oncology Data With Machine Reading
Implementation of precision oncology requires scalable interpretative tools that address the growing complexity of genetic/genomic data and corresponding treatment modalities. The Clinical Knowledgebase (CKB) leverages Microsoft’s Hanover AI machine-reading technology to provide computer-assisted human curation at scale.
Session Abstract – PMWC 2020 Silicon Valley
Track 6 - January 22 11.15 A.M.-1.15 P.M.,Track 7 - January 24 2.30 P.M.-3.45 P.M.
The PMWC 2020 Genomic Profiling Showcase will provide a 15 min speaking opportunity for selected companies working with the latest technologies in nucleic acid sequencing such as NGS, providing instrumentation for genomic sequencing, and offering direct to consumer services. These companies will share their innovative products and services to an audience of leading investors, potential clients and partners. The Genomic Profiling Showcase will exhibit the latest innovations in methods and instruments used for DNA/ RNA sequencing to ascertain the genomic and transcriptional profile of a person in order to understand why some people get certain diseases while others do not, or why people react in different ways to the same drug. This information is also being used to develop new ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases, such as cancer.
