Researchers have developed ProtoPathway, a novel multimodal framework designed for predicting cancer survival. This framework integrates whole slide imaging and transcriptomics data by using biologically grounded representations. ProtoPathway employs learnable morphological prototypes for image analysis and a graph neural network for genomic data, enabling cross-modal attention to model the relationship between molecular programs and tissue morphology. The system offers enhanced biological interpretability and reduced computational cost, demonstrating competitive performance on TCGA cancer cohorts. AI
