June 24, 2025
Biodata Stage
- The GDC houses multi-omic and clinical data for > 44K cases, spanning 36 types of cancer across 86 projects.
- A cohort-centric interface allows integrated comparisons of patients with common features, across a suite of analysis tools.
- Our approach to processing and serving 9 petabytes of genomics, imaging, and clinical data through an API and portal is described.
