Q: Will collection method affect downstream tests? Lacey: About 22h processing, decisions had to be made. Focus on biomarkers #AACR17

Lacey: "Data silos make me cringe today." The best way to solve the data-sharing problem. #AACR17

7:30am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

7:27am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: So it was $156K/year in phlebotomist time. $36K/year is then cheap. "Remember technology is not innovation" #AACR17

7:27am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: Recruitment: 6 calls, 3 v/ms, 3 email. Automated emails: $36K/y for that. For phlebotomists: 800 emails, 10'/email, 13h/w #AACR17

7:26am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: The largest costs is people - not technology. 10 phlebotomists at 5 min/day = 48 w/y = $4K at $20/hr #AACR17

7:24am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: Now thru design, dev, testing, deployment. Not 'is it better than SFDC', rather 'will it produce better outcome?' #AACR17

7:24am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: Needed real-time reporting across 3 study sites; needed cloud and mobile. Taught epidemiology to their business partners #AACR17

Lacey: (Background - CA teachers breast cancer study, went from paper to QR codes and SFDC, from 2 weeks to minutes) #AACR17

7:21am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: Addressed pre-analytical var up-front. Logistics is the skillset they needed - so they used SFDC (!) and it worked very well #AACR17

7:19am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: They hit their numbers. @jimlaceyjr at #AACR17 (a first time I'm seeing a Twitter address on a presentation footer!)

7:18am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: Why collection in CA to biobank in Rockville MD? "Thermo had the scale". Collected 14K blood samples from Aug '13 to Aug '16. #AACR17

7:18am April 5th 2017 via Hootsuite

Lacey: When done right (and it's not hard to do) PHI is easier to do via cloud and mobile; much more secure than paper #AACR17
