Cancer type predictions were performed on data the SEER cancer registry. Using that data will require requesting access from SEER and agreeing to their terms of use.

The original source (http://db.csail.mit.edu/labdata/labdata.html) from the Intel Berkely Research Lab appears to be offline so the version of the data used has been saved in the data directory of this repository.
