Product director, multimodal data applications

Advances in clinical genomics over the past decade have revolutionized the management of many diseases, and notably resulted in marked improvements in outcomes for specific cancer patient populations. Building on these successes, multimodality is an approach that combines this critical genomics data with more phenotypic data such as radiomics-based analysis of imaging data, clinical data and biological data, to create a more holistic and longitudinal view of human biology and disease along the patient journey.
