The conference will bring together a large number of high-level experts and stakeholders with different background and expertise, from different types of organisations and countries, including from outside Europe, to discuss challenges and opportunities in the field of genomic-based personalised medicine, as well as aspects not covered in research and funding. Organised by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT), on behalf of the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation, the Institute of Health Carlos III (ISCIII) and the Centre for the Development of Technology and Innovation (CDTI), the conference will take place in the Príncipe Felipe Research Center Foundation (CIPF), host institution of the event. The conference takes place on 4 and 5 October 2023 in Valencia.

#Bigdataforbloodcancer: Revolutionizing the use of big data in Hematologic Malignancies research.
When the HARMONY Alliance started in 2017, the hematology community was embarking on a journey towards embracing data sharing and recognizing the transformative power of big data. HARMONY set a crucial milestone when this endeavor was only starting. By laying the foundation for future collaborations, advancements, and discoveries that would incorporate state-of-the-art technologies in the field of hematology, HARMONY is making its contribution to improve the understanding and treatment of blood disorders. Now, just almost seven years later with 128 partners from 28 countries, we have transformed both the sharing and use of data. We have developed the Big Data Platform with a data lake that has identified over 160,000 patient records. All data is protected using a unique anonymization and security process. In more than 30 research projects, groundbreaking research is being carried out with the help of advanced customized data analytic services, including AI modelling.
