Judith Pérez, winner of the collaborative poster session at the 2nd DCEXS PhD students' symposium

Congratulations to Judith Pérez, predoctoral researcher of the Integrative Biomedical Informatics Group of GRIB, awarded for the poster entitled "ResMarkerDB: a database of biomarkers of response to antibody therapy for breast and colorectal cancer". ResMarkerDB aims to promote the identification of existing and new actionable biomarkers of drug response in cancer and acts as a centralized repository that gathers information of biomarkers of response to therapeutic monoclonal antibodies for breast and colorectal cancer. Indeed, it integrates information from available public repositories and new data extracted and curated from the literature. Furthermore, ResMarkerDB allows exploration, visualization and prioritization of biomarker data and its response to therapy in a specific cancer type according to the evidence supporting their association and potential clinical usefulness. More information of this resource at http://resmarkerdb.org.

The poster session was part of the 2nd PhD students' symposium of the Department of Experimental and Health Sciences (DCEXS) held last 22&23rd of November in the PRBB. The DCEXS holds every year this symposium featuring leading topics in biomedical research, such as quantitative biology, genetics or neuroscience. Last year it was focused on doctoral students and this year it has been organized by a committee with representatives from all collectives.
