The BioData World Congress 2017 was held the 2 - 3 November 2017 in the EBI Hinxton campus in Cambridge, UK. The Congress brought together academia, industry and healthcare to discuss and debate how to come together to improve efficiencies within bio IT and biodata to the benefit of patients worldwide.

I presented a talk entitled "Data Science for Drug Discovery" which focused on the collective efforts of the Department of Data Science of the ICR around the development of the canSAR knowledgebase to support cancer drug discovery including recent efforts focusing in childhood cancers.
