machine learning

Predicting cancer mutations from gene expression

Using public domain TCGA data

(from Xena Browser)

7,306 samples

20,468 genes with expression

RNA-Seq

21,960 genes with mutation.

Sequencing

covariates

elastic net logistic regression

Precision Oncology

"the science of ensuring that a patient's treatment is specifically designed and targeted for their unique form of cancer"

everyone learns something new
