5 New Genes May Lead To Customised Breast Cancer Treatment
Scientists have uncovered five new genes associated with breast cancer and 13 new mutational signatures that influence tumour development, an advance that may lead to personalised healthcare for the deadly disease. The results of the largest-ever study to sequence the whole genomes of breast cancer also show what genetic variations exist in the dis...
