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):

Correlation of batch with clinical traits

Significant correlations of batch with the clinical variables:

Most likely that days to form completion is not a real clinical trait.
DNA methylation data (tumor matched): 27k, available 32 patients. At this point it is not enough to proceed with analyses
