The project aims to create an online cache of molecular data
that oncologists and cancer researchers could use to validate the
current models that best translate to humans, make predictions
about the disease and move toward a collaborative, precision
medicine approach to cancer. Ultimately, Butte said, the effort
also has the potential to create computer-based cancer models
that greatly reduce the need for using animals in research.

Health Sciences, will collaborate with Alejandro Sweet-Cordero, MD, Julien Sage, PhD, and Nigam Shah, PhD, at Stanford University, who will provide support with the latest
genetically-engineered cancer models, as well as standardized
nomenclatures. It also will include bioinformatics specialists
from the Northrop Grumman Corp., who will help build and
maintain the online database.

Innovations in Military Care are a
True Testament to the Possibilities
of Mobile Medical Technology
As health technology becomes increasingly central to providing improved
patient experiences and outcomes across
healthcare innovations in military care
continue to provide news ways of supporting military personnel both in and
out of combat.
Philips recently revealed a full range of
solutions for military care and treatment
at the Defence and Security Equipment
International 2015 event in London.
Medical solutions across the military care
continuum, from helping to educate and
train medical teams before deployment,
to providing lightweight, rugged medical
solutions to help triage and diagnose at
the point of injury, as well as providing
rapidly deployable solutions for diagnosis and treatment were demonstrated.
