The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) is pleased to offer the first FREE webinar in the SITC-NCI Computational Immuno-oncology live webinar series, "Advanced Biomarker Development and Clinical Translation: Computational Science in Immuno-oncology".
Webinar Description: Biomarker discovery for cancer immunotherapy entails using high-dimensional multi-omic assays that can be difficult to interpret, particularly in the setting of challenging clinical trial designs such as small cohort size or unbalanced response rates. This webinar will therefore address advances in computational science and biostatistics that allow for rigorous interpretation of complex exploratory biomarker data, when most studies are typically only powered for clinical endpoints.
Key leaders in the field who are experts in their respective fields will provide an overview of the current state of the science and address questions about its future.
- Academic Faculty: Sacha Gnjatic, PhD – Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
- Industry Faculty: Aparna Chhibber, PhD – Bristol Myers Squibb
- Moderator: Benjamin Vincent, MD – University of North Carolina School of Medicine
An interactive Q&A session will follow the topic overview, providing participants with the opportunity to ask in-depth questions of the faculty.
