  <title><![CDATA[Georgia Tech Researchers Offer Open-Source Cancer Treatment Algorithm]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Open-source software, in which&nbsp;the source code is available for anyone to use and modify, has been around since the late 1990s. When it comes to cancer drug prediction, however, its use has been limited. A team of Georgia Tech researchers hopes to change that. Its&nbsp;new <a href="http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0186906">study</a>, and the&nbsp;release of an open&nbsp;source, machine learning platform&nbsp;for cancer drug prediction, is&nbsp;getting the attention of healthcare media outlets such as Healthcare Analytics News and this <a href="https://www.healthdatamanagement.com/news/georgia-tech-makes-machine-learning-algorithm-available-to-fight-cancer">story</a>&nbsp;from Health Data Management. The study&#39;s co-authors are&nbsp;with the <a href="http://biosci.gatech.edu">School of Biological Sciences</a>. <a href="http://biosci.gatech.edu/people/john-mcdonald">John McDonald</a> is a professor and director of Tech&#39;s&nbsp;<a href="http://www.icrc.gatech.edu">Integrated Cancer Research Center</a>. <a href="http://biosci.gatech.edu/people/fredrik-vannberg">Fredrik Vannberg </a>is an assistant professor.&nbsp;</p>
