Topic

Morphology Feature Array (MFA) as a Risk Assessment Platform for Breast Cancer Treatment

In our presentation we cover the development and practical application of a digital pathology, AI-derived digital laboratory-developed test (LDT) to phenotype, grade, and prognosticate early-stage invasive breast cancer — ultimately to support patient treatment planning and management decisions.

Artificial Intelligence in Cancer Research – AI PHI Affinity Group

(First Friday of each month)

This group was formed to discuss the current trends and applications of artificial intelligence in cancer research and clinical practice. The group brings together AI researchers in a variety of fields (computer science, engineering, nutrition, epidemiology radiology, etc) with clinicians and advocates. Students, trainees and faculty with any or no background in AI are encouraged to attend. The goal is to foster collaborative interactions to solve problems in cancer that were thought to be unsolvable a decade ago before the broad use of deep learning and AI in medicine.
