New Ideas for Existing Data?

With the funding initiative “DataXperiment,” the BMBF (Federal Ministry of Education and Research) supports innovative research projects aimed at reusing or further utilizing existing data and tools in cancer research within the framework of the National Decade Against Cancer.

Our Postdoc Gutav Müller-Franzes’ project CLIMB (Contrastive Language Image analysis for Magnetic resonance Breast cancer diagnosis) is supported by this new funding scheme. The main goal of CLIMB is to assess the feasibility of adapting CLIP for the detection of breast cancer in MRI scans by matching text data from medical reports with visual information from the images.

You can find more information on the CLIMB project as well as other third-party funded project under Funding.
