AACR Annual Meeting 2017 Special Session - Advancing Cancer Therapy Using Data from the NIH LINCS Program
April 4, 2017
Washington, DC
This session highlights recent results from the NIH-funded Library of Network-Based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) program, which is assembling libraries of perturbagen-response signatures using high-throughput transcript and proteomic profiling, live and fixed-cell imaging and phenotypic assays. Ways of accessing and analyzing LINCS data, software and experimental protocols will be presented along with recent insights into oncogenic mechanisms and responses to therapeutic drugs derived from large-scale profiling studies.

LINCS Outreach Meeting 2016
March 10, 2016 to March 11, 2016
University of California, Irvine, CA
We invited the research community to come see examples of LINCS in action and learn how to effectively work with these unprecedented datasets. The first day of the workshop brought together the six LINCS Data and Signature Generation Centers and the BD2K-LINCS Data Coordination and Integration Center (DCIC) to review progress to date and discuss the next steps for data integration and analysis across the centers. The afternoon of the first day and the morning of the second day of the workshop included an outreach program with experts in stem cell biology, and big data management and analysis and focused on the use of current datasets.
