Advancing Data Incorporation and Interoperability for Cancer Image Europe

ADVANCING DATA INCORPORATION AND INTEROPERABILITY FOR CANCER IMAGE EUROPE

December 4^th, 2024
9.30 am – 1.00 pm

This workshop offers all attendees an invaluable opportunity to learn about the forefront of data interoperability and incorporation in AI and bioinformatics, especially within the critical field of cancer imaging. Attendees will gain insights into the EUCAIM consortium’s efforts to build a scalable, interoperable data framework that aligns with FAIR principles—making data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. By exploring real-world case studies, hands-on platform demonstrations, and expert panel discussions, participants will understand both the practical challenges and solutions in achieving seamless data integration across complex datasets and models. This knowledge is directly transferable to biotech, medtech, and digital health initiatives, empowering attendees to enhance data standardisation and interoperability in their own projects. Furthermore, this session fosters networking and collaboration, offering direct interaction with EUCAIM’s technical leaders and other pioneering organisations focused on advancing data-driven healthcare solutions.
