Erika - Public release targeted for August 26 - National Dog Day - Anna and Shea introduced from Communications Team. Working on Blog post and communications plan. | |||
Anna presented on the campaign centered on National Dog Day. Talked about audience: cancer researchers, vet oncologists, data scientists, canine patient owners, cancer patients. #NationalDogDay. Start the story of ICDC's role within the data ecosystem and potential impact in cancer research. Twitter, NCI Instagram, NCI Facebook. 4 campaigns highlighted: Best Friends Share Everything, Harmonize with us, ICDC to the rescue, Thank you #DataScienceDogs. Group chose Best Friends Share Everything. | |||
| Matt gave update on data/functional release. | |||
| Inclusion of non-cancer data - need to know what normal looks like. So, yes. | |||
| John brought up a publication on ICDC - with Debbie Knapp's data, perhaps we now have the opportunity to show how we can analyze her data using ICDC and the Cloud Resources. Does this idea have merit? The idea is to reproduce her analysis - show the technique and maybe extend the analysis to answer other questions. Looking for an opportunity to produce a reference that can be used by others. Erika suggests that maybe we work with the Steering Committee to find new data to load to ICDC and then analyze that can then be publishable. Maybe Debbie has more analysis that she wasn't able to do, that we could enable. We should think about this and plan for it and share the idea at an SC meeting. Strong links between canine and human bladder cancer may allow us to take advantage of Debbie's data. Let's talk to Debbie about the idea and she what she thinks.
