We leverage machine le arning techniques applied to high-dimensional genomic data to enhance tumo r classification and improve risk stratification. These approaches have dr iven discovery of novel drivers of human brain tumors and expanded our und erstanding of tumor heterogeneity. This evolution in tumor classification has not only advanced our basic understanding of cancer biology but has le d to novel personalized therapeutic strategies in clinical trials.\n\nBren t A. Orr\n\nDivision Director\, Anatomic Pathology and Neuropathology\, St . Jude Children's Research Hospital\n\nDr. Brent Orr MD\, PhD is a Member in the Department of Pathology at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. H e is the Division Director for Anatomic Pathology and Neuropathology. His research laboratory is focused on molecular classification of pediatric br ain and solid tumors. He serves as the pathology lead on multiple clinical trials\, including both recurrent and frontline trials for embryonal brai n tumors such as medulloblastoma and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors. Dr . Orr serves on the steering committee for Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to CNS Tumor Taxonomy (cIMPACT-NOW) and was a con tributing author for the 5th Editions of the WHO Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System and Paediatric Tumours books.\n DTSTART:20250225T210000Z DTEND:20250225T220000Z LOCATION:de Grandpre Communications Centre\, The Neuro SUMMARY:Killam Seminar Series: Rise of the Machines: Enhancing Brain Tumor Diagnostics Using Machine Learning URL:/neuro/channels/event/killam-seminar-series-rise-m achines-enhancing-brain-tumor-diagnostics-using-machine-learning-363681 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
