Webinar: How is Big Data helping to cure cancer?

Jun 27th, 2016

Gary Allemann, MD at Master Data Management

Master Data Management (MDM) partner, Datameer, a big data analytics and visualisation company, will be hosting a webinar on the 14th of July 2016 where they will delve into how self-service Big Data Analytics helps researchers understand the mechanisms of Cancer, identify risk factors and develop effective prevention.

The German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ), Fujitsu and Datameer have collaborated to produce radical improvements to the genomic research process by applying unique, powerful analytic techniques that increase accuracy and dramatically reduce analytic cycle times. This new approach opens doors to new insights and better treatment for cancer patients.

Please join the webinar where Dr. Fritz Schinkel, head of Fujitsu’s Big Data Competence Centre and a Fujitsu Distinguished Engineer, will discuss how the combined Datameer and Fujitsu platform is driving new analytic techniques and speed. With these new capabilities, the DKFZ will also discuss how they can now:

  • Perform deeper analysis on raw datasets representing millions of genomic positions without requiring data reduction techniques that can compromise results
  • Dramatically reduce the time to analysis on raw genomic datasets for each patient to speed the creation of patient treatments

Join this webinar on the 14th of July to see new technology turning into a human-centric innovation, which helps to improve understanding of the cancer disease.
