Session Abstract – PMWC 2019 Silicon Valley
Session Synopsis: Genetic data have a limited impact in personalized cancer medicine without cell biological phenotype data. However, reproducible multiomics databases are not existing, yet. The session will address the major challenge, i.e. routine collection of tissue in multi-center studies of global scale that fulfill the preanalytical requirement for multiomic databases.
