With all the excitement around multi-omics, there’s one question that stands out …
How will multi-omics change healthcare?
With new methods to integrate data, new applications in precision medicine, and the general promise of AI/ML methods, it is an exciting time to be applying multi-omic methods.
Hence, we would like to invite you to attend this Multi-omics Unleashed webinar series, to join us over the next three weeks while we explore the latest impact of ‘unleashing’ multi-omics on healthcare and translation research from three different angles.
Webinar 3: AI/ML - Driving Multi-Omics Data Analysis to New Heights
Tuesday 23rd July 2024 at 3pm BST / 4pm CET/ 10am EDT
Finally, we finish with Webinar 3 and some highlights from Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Specifically, how they are pushing multi-omics analyses to the next level, leading the way to transforming precision medicine.
Speakers:
-
Zeeshan Ahmed, Assistant Professor of Medicine, The State University of New Jersey - "Precision Medicine with Intelligent and Integrative Multi-Omics Data Analysis"
-
Ibrahim AlHurani, PhD Candidate, Lakehead University - "An Autoencoder and Generative Adversarial Networks Approach for Multi-Omics Data Imbalanced Class Handling and Classification"
-
Panos Firbas, Post-Doc Researcher, Champalimaud Foundation - "Integrating a Molecular Assay in a Transformer Model for Context-Sensitive Cis-regulation Modeling"
Takeaways:
- How FAIR AI/ML applications will support early diagnosis and personalised treatment
- How you can use AI/ML today for better data, such as autoencoder-based dimensionality reduction and GANs to handle data imbalances in medical data
- Learn how models can ‘tap’ into biologically relevant information carried in an omic signal and model multi-omic data
