The study of cancer genomics has revealed that both inherited (germline) and acquired (somatic) genetic variations significantly influence cancer ...
Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...

Every cancer carries a unique genetic fingerprint: variations in DNA known as “somatic variants” that occur in tumor DNA but are absent from the patient’s healthy cells. While some cancers may also ...
It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a genetic disease, argue authors of a new essay. It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a ...
Lancaster University provides funding as a founding partner of The Conversation UK. Skin cancer is typically caused by damage to the skin’s cells from ultraviolet radiation. But a recent case study ...
