Miami Cancer Institute Multispecialty Grand Rounds – Causes and Consequences of Rearrangements in Cancer
Whole-genome sequencing using massively parallel sequencing technologies enables accurate detection of somatic rearrangements in cancer. Pinpointing large numbers of rearrangement breakpoints to base-pair resolution allows analysis of rearrangement microhomology and genomic location for every sample.
During this conference, Dr. Beroukhim will help participants understand the forces shaping rearrangements in the cancer genome.
