Join the NCI Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN) Data Jamboree this fall as we focus on the reuse and accessibility of HTAN datasets. The HTAN atlas datasets contain clinical data matched to a range of molecular data types, including a variety of multiplexed spatial data types (i.e., multiplexed immunofluorescence and spatial transcriptomics) and bulk and single-cell omics data.
Data Jamborees provide amazing opportunities for scientists and coders of diverse expertise and experience levels to work together creatively to build unique solutions that solve relevant problems in cancer research. The key to our Data Jamboree is the focus on collaboration centered around HTAN data.
Over three days, teams of four to eight people work on different scientific problems. The event will wrap up with a summary of the work accomplished during the event.
- Join colleagues from a range of communities to explore new approaches to analyze and integrate single-cell and spatial omics HTAN data
- Learn more about the HTAN data and resources, help improve the utility of HTAN data, and build a broader and more diverse HTAN community.
- Share expertise and gain insight through shared presentations and live demonstrations.
Interested applicants with creative project ideas are encouraged to submit a short project pitch by July 12. Applications to attend the Data Jamboree will open in August.
We are especially looking for participants interested in launching new collaborative projects focusing on spatial omics datasets.

Project Pitch details
Projects could include building analysis pipelines, visualization techniques, AI/ML algorithm development, employing statistical methods, or using existing computational, mathematical, or informatics tools to address cancer-focused questions.
Projects involving data interoperability, such as bringing public data to analyze with HTAN data are welcome. Projects to generate tutorial pipelines and educational tools are of interest.
We are also interested in data storytelling, infographics, and other creative uses of the HTAN atlas data.

This event is organized by the Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN) which is a National Cancer Institute (NCI)-funded Cancer Moonshot initiative. FNL is providing support to program management functions for NCI’s HTAN activities, including planning of intra- and cross-consortia workshops, as needed.
