Many layers of regulation affect the flow of information from DNA to RNA to protein. In a guest post from the Office of Cancer Clinical Proteomics Research, our colleagues describe the importance of incorporating proteomics to be…
To visualize and interpret single-cell RNA-seq data, researchers must select from endless combinations of computational methods and parameters. Dr. Dmitry Kobak and Dr. Philipp Berens discuss the pros and cons of one popular meth…
A genomic study of Ugandan cervical cancer patients, the UCSF Immunoprofiler Consortium, clinical trials informed by the Cancer Target Discovery and Development Network’s research, and other highlights from the August 2020 editio…
CCG Director Lou Staudt reflects on two pandemics—COVID-19 and racial injustice—and resolves to use the scientific method to address health care disparities. from CCG Updates and Insights https://ift.tt/2W0JSlE
Dr. Jason Locasale discusses new insights into the metabolic programs of different cell types in the tumor microenvironment—something enabled by the single-cell RNA sequencing revolution. Looking at metabolism helps us understand…
Personal Genomics is NCI’s premier podcast about people in cancer genomics research. On this narrative podcast, researchers will share their stories about what happens behind the scenes of research. from CCG Updates and Insight…
Computational challenges, a suite of algorithms for identifying effective cancer treatments, a scientist interview on translating genomics for precision medicine for cancer, and other highlights from the December 2019 edition of …
NCI’s Genomic Data Commons (GDC) has released data for 44,756 cancer cases from AACR Project GENIE. By making this massive data set available through the GDC, AACR and their partners hope to expand the reach and potential impact …
Dr. Robert Scharpf and Dr. Victor Velculescu discuss using DNA fragmentation profiles to analyze cell-free DNA and detect cancer from liquid biopsies. The machine learning-based method they developed could serve as a low-cost scr…
At the Genomic Data Commons’ three year anniversary, Dr. Lou Staudt reflects on milestones reached and describes future goals for growing an interactive knowledge system for the cancer research community. from CCG Updates and …
The latest edition of the Office of Cancer Genomics (OCG) e-Newsletter includes discussions from researchers on recent advances in cancer genomics, updates on some of our programs, and personal accounts on finding new ways to sup…
Low-coverage whole-genome sequencing is a recent trend to sequence samples to a very low depth of coverage, often less than 1X. Researchers from very different fields (genetics and cancer diagnostics) are developing computational…
