Data Mining Can Save Lives
100€ raised
Goal 500 €
La foundation 101génomes récolte actuellement des données génomiques et l'équipe de généticiens et bio-informaticiens dont elle est composée pourrait probablement découvrir comment appréhender des maladies génétiques rares, comme le syndrome de Marfan, en continuant à analyser les gigantesques entrepôts de données qu'elle récolte.
Cependant, vous le savez, les avancées technologiques et les facilités que le cloud computing propose depuis peu, et qui pourraient enfin permettre de miner des données dans un temps acceptable, ont un coût qui augmente avec la complexité des calculs et du montant de données.
Si vous avez l'habitude d'héberger des sites Internet ou des applications en ligne, vous savez que chaque minute coûte un petit montant.
Et chaque minute de perdue pour la Fondation 101 génomes, est une minute de moins pour s'approcher de résultats médicaux probants.
Vous pouvez acheter l'équivalent de 5 minutes de data mining par semaine pour la fondation et faire faire un petit pas de plus à la recherche.
Petits pas après petits pas, les analyses de données pourraient nous faire faire un grand saut sur le plan médical.
Rejoignez-nous, et, grâce à vos dons, faites tourner nos machines pour la recherche, même quand vous dormez.
— Data Mining Can Save Lives
The Fondation 101 Génomes (F101G) is a patient-led initiative that aims to boost groundbreaking research in the field of rare diseases. F101G is hosted by the Fondation Roi Baudoin.
Our goal is to advance the understanding of the human genome to better treat rare diseases affecting children. We want to accelerate discoveries into new diagnostics tools and more efficient treatments.
To this aim, F101G is set to create a unique bioinformatic database that will unleash the full potential of genomics and artificial intelligence.
Our crowdfunding campaign “Impatient” wants to accelerate funding for research. We are “Impatient” because, when it comes to saving lives and improving the quality of life of people with a rare disease, there is no time to waste.
Gifts worth over 40 EUR are fiscally deductible.
Your money will help to support F101G’s pilot project, focused on Marfan Syndrome. Marfan Syndrome is a rare genetic connective tissue disorder affecting 1 in 5000 people. It’s a serious condition, which can be potentially life-threatening without an early diagnosis and medical treatment.
The pilot project aims to create a bioinformatic database crossing genotypic (Whole Genome Sequencing) data and detailed phenotypic (clinical) data from a cohort of patients holding the exact same mutation in FBN-1 gene. The ultimate aim is to understand the extreme variability in the symptoms of Marfan patients.
World-class medical scientists will have open access to this database. They will be able to launch algorithms designed to understand why some people display severe symptoms while others are only mildly affected by the mutation causing Marfan Syndrome. This discovery will allow scientists to develop accurate diagnostic tools and personalised treatments and cures for Marfan patients.
The project has galvinized support from the international scientific community. F101G’s scientific committee is formed by scientists from Antwerp University, UZ Gent, Erasme Hospital, Nijmegen, and Bichat Hospital.

Excellente initiative. Quand on sait la taille d'une centaine de génomes, on comprend très vite le problème. Heureux de participer.
