In the first of a series of sessions meant to introduce these Cancer Genomics Cloud Pilots, we will present an overview and example use cases of the SevenBridges Cloud Pilot Platform. You can access this platform using your NIH credentials via the “eRA Commons” login tab at: https://cgc.sbgenomics.com/ This session will include a walkthrough that is optionally hands-on, so bring your laptop to get the most out of the session.
