Team iCombine is led by FIMM Group Leader Jing Tang. The team also includes several other researchers from FIMM: Tero Aittokallio, Evgeny Kulesskiy, Ashwini Kumar, Dimitrios Tsallos and Muntasir Mamun. The other team members, Samu Kurki, Emma Andersson, Olli Dufva and Mikko Keränen represent the Auria biobank (University of Turku & Turku University Hospital) and the Hematology Research Unit Helsinki (University of Helsinki & Helsinki University Central Hospital).
Team iCombine is working on a decision support system which will enable doctors to easily search for the best possible personalised treatment for each cancer patient. The iCombine solution would speed up the process of finding the most effective treatment and reduce the costs of drug treatment.
Warmest congratulations to the whole team!
