Overview

The Seven Bridges CGC is proud to launch the ICGC-TCGA DREAM Somatic Mutation Calling – RNA Challenge (SMC-RNA). The mission of this latest DREAM Challenge is to generate more accurate, reproducible methods for quantifying known isoforms and detecting gene fusions from RNA-Sequencing data.

To help you get started, the CGC has collated challenge resources, including data, example applications, and sample analyses, within a public project on the CGC.

To preserve the integrity of the public projects' resources, you only have read permissions for these projects. You can make a copy of the entire project to conduct further analyses.
