A medical soft ware to aid in mapping cancer

[D.ap]

A young lady on the ASPS support group by the name of Sharmaine ,shared with the group
The soft ware is slowly being fed information by medical professionals. With this info ,mapping patterns of different cancers area being provided back to medical professionals with the likely course/progression of studied cancers. The hope is to be proactive in treatments knowing of the possibilities of spread

Looks like NIH will be studying sarcomas using this PiClnc
software

Thank you Sharmaine

" Overview
The Pipeline for Cancer Inference PiCnIc is our attempt at devise an effective pipeline to extract ensemble-level cancer progression models from cross-sectional data. The pipeline is versatile, modular and customizable and exploits state-of-the-art data processing and machine learning tools to:
identify tumor subtypes and then in each subtype;
select (epi)genomic events driving the progression;
identify groups of events that are likely to be observed as mutually exclusive;
infer progression models from groups and such data, and annotate them with associated statistical confidence."
