Article Synopsis
  • We're in a genomic era where genomic data is crucial for diagnosing diseases, finding targeted therapies, and assessing risks related to treatments.
  • Despite its importance, combining genomic test results with clinical data for research purposes is still difficult.
  • To address these challenges, a new framework called SPARKS and a tool named OncDRS have been developed, enabling better integration and access to clinical and genomic data, which has already supported over 1500 research queries and 50 studies within a year.
