Student project
Deep Learning to predict recurrence in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC)
Aim of the presently proposed ‘proof of concept‘ study is to develop digital pattern recognition algorithms (more specifically: deep neural networks) for the extraction of morphological features from scanned H&E stained tissue sections from TNBC which are indicative for the risk of recurrence.
Student project
Predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in breast cancer histopathology from a panel of immunohistochemical markers
Development of AI-biomarkers to predict neoaduvant chemotherapy response in breast cancer.
