Singapore's National University Cancer Institute, HealthSeq Asia Partner to Study AML Genomes

Feb 20, 2018

|

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – The National University Cancer Institute, Singapore and HealthSeq Asia will collaborate on a research project to sequence 150 acute myeloid leukemia genomes to better understand the disease in Asian populations.

HealthSeq, a health technology company that is building data clouds for genomic information, will perform the sequencing through its partner Tempus Labs. The data will then be analyzed on a data cloud developed by HealthSeq and the National University Hospital of Singapore.
