Integrating heterogeneous biomedical data, including clinical metadata, histopathology images, and molecular profiles, is crucial for comprehensive disease understanding. However, gene expression data acquisition remains constrained by high costs and privacy concerns, limiting its use in multimodal research and AI-driven applications.
