Project roadmap and first phase results from the Mapping Cancer Markers team

By: The Mapping Cancer Markers research team
10 Jul 2014

Summary
The lead researcher for Mapping Cancer Markers presents a roadmap for the project to analyze signatures for 4 types of cancer: lung, ovarian, prostate and sarcoma; an update on his team’s progress thus far, and an invitation to join the research team in an August cancer fundraiser.

On behalf of the Mapping Cancer Markers team, we want to start by saying thank you! In just 7 months, World Community Grid members have donated over 60,000 years of processing time to support our research. As a result, we are nearly done with the “benchmarking” portion of the project, which determines the characteristics of our search space. Over the coming months and years, we will pursue more targeted approaches to discover relevant gene signatures. Today we want to give you both a high-level roadmap and some further detail about what is happening with the project.

Very interesting and informative reading - more here
