Workshop: UCD Clinical DSS for Breast & Prostate

This workshop will bring together experts in both breast and prostate cancer biomarker and statistical developments from both academic and industrial settings. Topics will include novel technologies/assay platforms, integrative statistical modelling, use of computational/systems medicine approaches and leveraging of multi-dimensional and longitudinal data. The workshop will also tackle health economic issues and drivers, as well as risk perception from both the clinician and patient perspective.

A key focus of the event will be examination of relevant call topics within the Horizon 2020 work programme, such as SC1-PM-02-2017 ‘New concepts in patient stratification’, and initial planning for potential collaborative bids involving subgroups of workshop participants.
