The repertoire of mutational signatures in human cancer

Integrated genomic analyses of ovarian carcinoma

From human genome to cancer genome: The first decade

The realization that cancer progression required the participation of cellular genes provided one of several key rationales, in 1986, for embarking on the human genome project. ...

A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs

Demographic history and rare allele sharing among human populations

High-throughput sequencing technology enables population-level surveys of human genomic variation. Here, we examine the joint allele frequency distributions across continental h...

The complete genome of an individual by massively parallel DNA sequencing

The association of genetic variation with disease and drug response, and improvements in nucleic acid technologies, have given great optimism for the impact of 'genomic medicine...

Integrating common and rare genetic variation in diverse human populations

Despite great progress in identifying genetic variants that influence human disease, most inherited risk remains unexplained. A more complete understanding requires genome-wide ...

Comprehensive Characterization of Cancer Driver Genes and Mutations

Identifying molecular cancer drivers is critical for precision oncology. Multiple advanced algorithms to identify drivers now exist, but systematic attempts to combine and optim...
