Institute for Data Science in Oncology

The institute fosters an ecosystem for our clinicians, researchers and a growing team of data scientists to pioneer the use of data science to explore new frontiers in cancer research and care. But exploration is not enough. IDSO seeks impact for our patients. By design, IDSO supports data science-enabled insights that can be put into practice, thereby transforming cancer care for our patients and the world.

For the next five years, five areas of focus will drive impactful change. Each was chosen for their readiness and potential for impact, and is co-led by newly recruited MD Anderson faculty, with recruitment underway for several other co-leads.
