Case Study: Emory Winship Cancer Institute

A Unified Analytics Platform is Helping Researchers Win the Battle Against Cancer

Scientists at the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University started an initiative to accelerate innovation in cancer prevention, detection, and treatment. They needed to incorporate their vast array of clinical, laboratory, and research data held in a number of different databases into one unified platform for their affiliated scientists to be able to analyze.

Read our case study to learn more about The Winship Analytics for Learning and Investigation (WALI) initiative and how they partnered with DNAnexus to make their data accessible to their research community with a clinico-genomic Trusted Research Environment (TRE).

Key Takeaways:

• A single point of access to molecular and clinical data sets.
• Analyzing genotypic and phenotypic data within a single platform.
• Interoperability while maintaining the granularity needed for advanced research
