FAQ
The Cancer Research Institute (CRI) iAtlas is an interactive web platform and a set of analytic tools for studying interactions between tumors and the immune microenvironment.
CRI iAtlas is made possible through a collaboration between the Cancer Research Institute, Sage Bionetworks, the Institute for Systems Biology, and the Vincent Lab at the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Please send us a message to support@cri-iatlas.org. Also consider opening a Github issue in the app repository.
Yes!
The code for the CRI iAtlas web app is open source and available at our Github repository .
We also have a collection of notebooks that you can run to carry out functionality made available by the iAtlas platform, as well as how carry out additional functions, such as enabling the integration of your data with what’s already in iAtlas.
You can access our workflows in Dockstore.
Yes! If you would like to contribute code changes please follow these steps:
- Search the issues list in the repo. Consider opening an issue related to the suggested feature.
- For new code development, create a personal fork and commit new code in that fork.
- Propose changes via pull request of personal branches.
