About this Class
No one fights cancer alone — not patients, and not scientists. Every discovery at the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research builds on the shared efforts of researchers, clinicians, and computational biologists working towards a common goal. From high-throughput sequencing of complex experimental designs to downstream computational analysis, this talk highlights how the Center for Cancer Research’s Collaborative Bioinformatics Resource (CCBR) team leverages high-performance computing to transform raw sequencing data into meaningful biological insights. This behind-the-scenes view of collaborative,data-driven genomics highlights how rigorous analysis and reproducible accelerates discoveries that move us closer to better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
