The AACR Annual Meeting program covers the latest discoveries across the spectrum of cancer research—from population science and prevention; to cancer biology, translational, and clinical studies; to survivorship and advocacy—and highlights the work of the best minds in research and medicine from institutions all over the world.

At this year’s annual meeting, Digital Science is proud to be involved with a poster session (252) on New Software for Data Analysis.  Robert (Bob) Schijvenaars, Vice President, Technology at Digital Science has co-authored a paper on Navigating networks of oncology biomarkers mined from the scientific literature: A new open research tool.

Abstract
Introduction: Oncology biomarkers have a pivotal role in diagnosis, prognosis, assessment of disease progression and the prediction of treatment efficacy.  There are > 5000 known biomarkers; some are well characterised, while others are emerging as biomarkers of potential interest. Biomarker panels, incorporating
combinations of biomarkers, are increasingly used to enhance the power and precision of testing.

The poster will be presented by Kim Wager from Oxford PharmaGenesis on Saturday 10 April 2021 between 8:30 AM – 11:59 PM EDT
