Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce that registration is now open for the 3rd edition of the ‘HADACA data challenge: Multimodal data integration to quantify tumor heterogeneity in cancer’. 

The event will be held from December 2 to 6, 2024, in Aussois (French Alps).

This scientific competition will focus on quantifying tumor heterogeneity using supervised deconvolution approaches on bulk multiomics data (transcriptome and DNA methylation). Particular emphasis will be placed on the integration of multi-modal reference data (single cell-RNAseq, RNAseq, and DNAm of pure cell-type profiles).

We are excited to welcome three distinguished guest speakers: Andrea Rau, Etienne Becht, and Fatima Al-Shahrour, who will provide insights into multimodal data integration, deconvolution, and computational oncology.

Registration for the challenge will open on September 3, 2024, and close on October 4, 2024.

To ensure the quality of the discussions and workshop, we are limiting registration to 40 participants. Selection will be based on participants' profiles, expertise, and motivation.

We invite students, researchers, engineers, professors, clinicians, and professionals from the private sector to participate. We seek expertise in Biology, Computer Science, Statistics, Bioinformatics, or Medical Sciences

We look forward to your participation!

Best regards,

Magali Richard, on behalf of the HADACA scientific committee
