Duration: 1 hour
Cancer is a complex family of diseases, characterized by the deregulation or dysregulation of the normal control pathways for cellular growth and/or apoptosis. Despite advances, technological limitations or excessive cost have historically restricted research into causative factors. Next-generation genomic platforms now are enabling scientists to study individual genomes in more depth, giving them a better understanding of the mechanisms of tumorigenesis, metastasis, and therapeutic response. In this timely webinar, a panel of distinguished scientists will share their latest advances in cancer genomics and offer their views on the road ahead for this important area of research.
