Event Details
Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a potential solution due to its capability in training models without sharing data. To enable effective FL in real applications, a robust communication framework is crucial.
Join Drs. Jayashree Kalpathy-Cramer and Ziyue Xu during the May NCI Imaging and Informatics Community Webinar as they cover the open-source NVIDIA Federated Learning Application Runtime (FLAIR) environment infrastructure for orchestrating an FL study. Also discussed will be Project MONAI, a medical imaging use case, recent research towards better performing FL pipelines, and the introduction of a current Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention challenge on breast density FL.
The accuracy and robustness of AI algorithms rely heavily on the quantity, quality, and diversity of the training data set. For medical imaging applications, the challenge of constructing such a data set is particularly significant, mainly due to the privacy concerns in data sharing across multiple institutions.
This event is free and open to the public.

Laboratory NCI-Frederick
Dr. Gonatopoulos-Pournatzis studies the regulatory pathways and functional roles of alternative splicing and other pre-mRNA processing events in mammalian cells. Towards this, he has developed several CRISPR-based screening platforms which are coupled to high-throughput phenotyping and enable systematic exploration of the regulatory and functional complexity of pre-mRNA processing. Dr. Gonatopoulos-Pournatzis’ team combines these functional genomics tools with molecular and biochemical approaches as well as animal models to identify alternative exons and other genetic segments that underlie phenotypes related to normal physiology and disease states. The long-term goal of his research is to contribute to the functional annotation of all exons in the human genome and to map the gene regulatory networks that underlie the complexity of the mammalian transcriptome.

About the Seminar
Artificial intelligence and machine learning have the potential to greatly transform healthcare. Although these techniques have shown remarkable performance for many tasks including medical image analysis, we will share some of the challenges that we have faced in developing robust and trustworthy algorithms including a lack of repeatability, explainability, generalizability, and the potential for bias. Access to large, representative, diverse, and well curated datasets is vital to improving the performance of machine learning algorithms. Historically, concerns related to patient privacy, regulations, cost and logistical challenges have limited data-sharing. Approaches such as federated learning can improve the robustness of algorithms by providing a framework where the trained models have been exposed to multi-institutional datasets without the need for data-sharing. We will review examples of privacy preserving learning from multi-institutional datasets and discuss successes as well as directions for future research.

Metabolomic and multi-omic data are increasingly being collected in basic, preclinical, and clinical research studies. Interpretation of these data though remains challenging. Common challenges include the difficulty in identifying metabolites and assigning unique identifiers, and the scarcity of resources that provide up-to-data comprehensive annotations and analysis tools on integrated genes/proteins and metabolites. To aid in interpreting these complex data, we developed RaMP-DB 2.0, a public resource that contains comprehensive biological, structural/chemical, disease, and ontology annotations for human metabolites and metabolic genes/proteins. The associated RaMP-DB 2.0 framework provides the ability to query those annotations and to perform pathway and chemical enrichment analysis on input multi-omic datasets. Since our first release, RaMP-DB 2.0 has been substantially upgraded and now includes an expanded breadth and depth of functional and chemical annotations, and a reproducible and semi-automated method for entity resolution of analytes across the different source databases pulled. The usability of the RaMP-DB 2.0 has also been improved through updates of pathway and chemical enrichment analysis methods, and a completely revamped web interface and associated public API for programmatic access. RaMP-DB 2.0 currently pulls information from HMDB, KEGG (through HMDB), Reactome, WikiPathways, Lipid-MAPS, and ChEBI and includes 254,860 chemical structures, of which 43,338 are lipids, 15,389 genes, 53,745 pathways, 807,362 metabolic enzyme/metabolite reactions, and 699 functional ontologies (biofluid, health condition, etc.). RaMP-DB 2.0 is available at https://rampdb.nih.gov/.

Python is one of the preferred programming languages for scientists to solve a wide variety of biological problems. We find that many scientists who come to Software Carpentry workshops use Python and want to learn more about its capabilities.
If you are a novice and want to learn how to program in Python to help you in your work, please join our six-week series of two-hour workshops! Instructors will use live code and you will follow along on your own computer. You will gain a strong foundation in the fundamentals of Python along with best practices for scientific computing: breaking down analyses into modular units, task automation, and encapsulation.
NOTE: This is a six-part course, held weekly for 6 weeks from 11 am – 1 pm, with a 20-minute lunch break. When you register, you are registering for all 6 weeks. Please make sure you have time in your schedule to commit to all six sessions!
