@SRC_CRS @CIHR_ICR @CdnLiverFdtn @CancerseinQC @OvarianCanada @cancersociety @DesjardinsINS Thank you to the donors and @SRC_CRS for supporting our research into early events initiating pediatric medulloblastoma! We hope these lead to improved diagnostics and potentially novel targeted therapies for these cancers.

(1/4)Is image segmentation a solved problem by #AI? maybe for natural images,but hardly true for cell segmentation! To address the gap, we announce the cell seg competition (https://t.co/rLiqCnB9nw ) in multi-modal high-resolution microscopy images in #NeurIPS2022.Join us and RT!

This is also the Pai lab's 1st time at #AACR2022 so come by and learn about our work! Areas of interest include genomics + methylomics of brain and hematological cancers, developing algorithms for drug discovery, and we're even starting an epigenetics wet lab. See you there!

[Pai Lab @RealPaiLab]

Come meet us at #AACR2022! @spaiglass presents poster #2505 Tuesday 9am-12:30pm (CT). Applying ML that uses prior knowledge of genome regulation to identify methylomic features that predict prognosis in PFA ependymoma and Group 3/4 MB.
