AI Case Study
Translational Genomics Research Institute significantly improves paediatric cancer last resort treatments by offering individualised therapies using machine learning to analyse genome
Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) uses machine learning to rapidly sequence genomes and make sense of disparate big data to develop individualised therapy plans for patients, achieving targeted and more efficient R&D plans and trials. This has also led to life-saving results for dozens of patients.
