CHI's Beyond Genome 2006
Chief Technology Officer, Bill Worzel, will discuss the
use of genetic programming to discover a 3-gene signature of metastasis
in bladder cancer. This signature identifies nodal metastases from
primary tumor tissue from quantitative RT-PCR data. The method used to
discover this signature is described and the broader significance of
this approach to clinical applications including personalized medicine
is discussed.

The Drug Industry Association Annual Meeting
Genetics Squared will participate in the session chaired
by Dr. Terry Osborn where we will discuss "The Use of Genetic
Programming to Identify Biomarkers Associated with Metastasis in
Bladder Cancer." This is a collaboration with the Richard Cote
Laboratory of the University of Southern California that discovered a
simple set of biomarkers taken from quantitative RT-PCR data that
identify nodal involvement from primary tumor tissue. The technology
used to develop this signature and its potential clincal impact will be
discussed.
