Project Description

Sridharan’s literature review focuses on the developing field of radiomics — the study of data generated by radiological imaging — as applied to ultrasound data and breast cancer. She consulted with the library’s biological sciences subject specialist about which databases to use and their relative strengths, and used cited references to identify additional sources in this emerging area of bioinformatics.
