National Cancer Institute to Host DataViz+Cancer Microlabs Beginning Aug. 31

Data are only as useful as the insights we can glean from them. How might recent advances in interactive media and data visualization help illuminate and solve pertinent challenges in cancer research? Join the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in a series of virtual events beginning Aug. 31 to explore these questions and spark new collaborations between experts in cancer research, data visualization, user-experience, virtual/augmented reality, and game design/development.

There will be a series of five microlabs from Aug. 31-Sept. 9 followed by a virtual poster session held Sept. 21-23 and a two-day interactive symposium from Sept. 24-25. Each microlab starts with an inspiring conversation between thought leaders from the Cancer Moonshot and creative visualization experts followed by an opportunity to engage new colleagues from other fields in a fascinating discussion on the frontiers of cancer data visualization.
