Important update (January 20th, 2011): the data below have been corrected for the BCR batch which is not necessarily the processing batch. The dataset needs to be reanalyzed. 

Correlation between BCR batch and the processing batch for 27k arrays(January 20, 2012)

h5. Batch vs survival

Again, for this type of cancer clinical traits file contains days to last known alive but it has more NAs than days to the last follow up so I will use the latter for construction of the survival object.
