After almost four years of development, experimentation and knowledge building on clinical implementation of precision medicine, participants from the lighthouse project BigMed demonstrate selected solutions established in the project.
Video of BigMed at EHiN 2020 is available HERE
Streamlining pipelines for genomic analyzes and making information available to oncologists who are to make decisions about the patient are some of the many areas where BigMed has developed proposals for technical solutions.
The solutions presented are:
- Electronic solution for requesting genetic analyzes
- Database for sharing individual genetic variants - to ensure quality across laboratories nationally and internationally
- Automatic reporting to the Cancer Registry - no double registration leaves more time to the patient, better completeness of the data and lower probability of errors
- A platform for innovation on sharp data
Please, visit EHiN's website for more information about the presentation by BigMed HERE and recordings from their previous events are available HERE
