Working on Cancer
Offered By: GOTO Conferences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive conference talk on using advanced technology to improve cancer treatments through whole genome sequencing. Dive into the challenges of utilizing vast amounts of genetic data in clinical settings and learn about an innovative approach developed by a small team of developers. Discover how they leveraged cutting-edge technologies like Clojure, Neo4j, and domain-specific languages to create a solution. Gain insights into the problem, the team's non-traditional process, and the resulting solution. Follow along as the speaker covers topics such as terminology, sequencing, cancer, team dynamics, process, graph databases, infrastructure, data ingestion, JSON, and programming languages. Conclude with valuable takeaways from this year-long project aimed at revolutionizing cancer treatment approaches.
