Now, Data Scientists is providing installation and support of OccIDEAS to the Breast Cancer, Environment and Employment Study (BCEES) being conducted by the Western
Australian Institute of Medical Research (WAIMR).

Sadkowsky says this study will use OccIDEAS to assist in identifying environmental and employment risk factors for breast cancer, and he estimated that the new tool would save the researchers at least 30% of their time in making exposure assessments.

“Attending the SER meeting was a great opportunity for us to see what international experts thought of OccIDEAS. We have returned with lots of potential new clients and interest in the product so we are really enthusiastic about delivering it.”
