sbv IMPROVER Datathon - Japan

The datathon organized in Japan addressed how to evaluate qualitatively (on which pathways and biological processes) and quantitatively the extent of biological impact of a system to specific exposure.

sbv IMPROVER Epigenomics Challenge - Israel

The challenge organized in Israel aimed at answering the questions whether a smoke exposure signature can be extracted (i) from DNA methylation levels of DNA cis-regulatory elements (CRE) or (ii) from expression data of genes controlled by differentially methylated DNA CRE.

2016

sbv IMPROVER Datathon - Singapore

Omics datasets and functional measurements from a 7-month inhalation toxicology study were provided to encourage scientists creating applications to analyze the datasets that could be later on included into Garuda.
