Discover how the Genomic Data Commons (GDC), in collaboration with the Imaging Data Commons (IDC), is advancing integrated cancer data exploration through the new IDC Image Viewer Tool available in the GDC Analysis Center. 

Date: Wednesday, September 9, 2026
Time: 2:00–3:00 p.m. EDT
Location: Web conference (see Webex information on the registration page link below)

Presenters will demonstrate how researchers can access, visualize, and explore histopathology and radiology images associated with genomically characterized cohorts using the new IDC Image Viewer Tool.

Speakers:

  • Dr. Bill Wysocki, Director of User Services, University of Chicago
  • Dr. Xin Zhou, Assistant Member, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
  • Dr. Andriy Fedorov, Associate Professor, Harvard Medical School

Participants will learn how to:

  • Access and visualize imaging data linked to genomically characterized cohorts using the IDC Image Viewer Tool.
  • Navigate the IDC Slim Viewer to explore pathology, whole-slide microscopy images, and annotations.
  • Use the IDC OHIF Viewer to interact with radiology images and associated annotations.
  • Understand how integrated genomic and imaging datasets support artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning applications in cancer research.
  • Explore GDC and IDC resources for multimodal data analysis and AI tool development.
