FEBRUARY’S TOPIC: A MODEL FOR ADVANCING PRE-CLINICAL TRIALS ON THE CANCER GENOMICS CLOUD — THE PDXNET STORY
In February, the CGC Webinar Series will feature a talk by Seven Bridges’ own Dr. Dennis A. Dean, II, on the Patient-Derived Xenografts Development and Trial Centers Research Network (PDXNet). The NCI-funded PDXNet Consortium aims to accelerate the identification of new multi-agent cancer treatments that advance to human clinical trials by facilitating collaboration between six PDX Development and Trial Centers. The task of facilitating research collaborations and making sequencing data publicly available falls to the PDXNet Coordinating Center, led by Jackson Laboratory and Seven Bridges.
In this upcoming webinar, Dr. Dean will discuss his experience working across PDXNet teams to develop standardized procedures on the Cancer Genomics Cloud for collecting and processing sequencing data, collecting and validating model/sequencing metadata, and making PDXNet data available to the research community. Additionally, Dr. Dean will introduce novel tools developed to accelerate data collection and publishing of resources generated by the PDXNet Consortium.
