Dana-Farber Cancer Institute scientists' discovery of a cancer-causing gene – the first in its family to be linked to cancer – demonstrates how the panoramic view of genomics and the close-up per...
Life Sciences | Read moreBeyond associations: Colorectal cancer culprit found
Several common genetic markers have been found to be associated with the disease, but finding the biological events that lead to cancer can be much more difficult. In a study published online in Genom...
