[Turing-Southampton] Turing-Roche event - Monday 12th July 1600-1700 BST

[Nichola Need]

***apologies if you receive this more than once***

The Alan Turing Institute and Roche have recently launched a new programme which will establish a world-leading industry and academic partnership in advanced analytics focused on enabling the transformative benefits of personalized healthcare to become a reality for patients around the world.

This strategic partnership will cover multiple activities, with the "North Star" of developing new data science methods to investigate large, complex, clinical and healthcare datasets to better understand how and why patients respond differently to treatment, and how treatment can be improved. Understanding such "treatment heterogeneity" is a problem at the forefront of modern medicine and is an essential first step toward the ambitious goal of developing a personalised approach to medical care.

To address this challenge, the partnership will make use of cutting edge datasets such as the Flatiron Health-Foundation Medicine Clinico-Genomic Database<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.roche.com%2Fabout%2Fpriorities%2Fpersonalised_healthcare%2Fcombining-data-to-advance-personalised-healthcare.htm&data=04%7C01%7CTuring-Southampton%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C19426761ec414435b61d08d94056e2dc%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637611564172428875%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=rtZBuGNX1XcB9OMygyyG2duteykPNradLoYhRadYPRs%3D&reserved=0> (CGDB), which links detailed, curated, electronic health records with comprehensive genomic profiling data of over 300 cancer related genes for over 60,000 oncology patients.
