Genetic association studies in cancer: good, bad or no longer ugly?

Human genomics - 1 Jun 2006

Savage Sharon A, Chanock Stephen J

Abstract excerpt

For some time, investigators have appreciated that genetic association studies in cancer are complex because of the multi-stage process of cancer and the daunting challenge of analysing genetic variants in population and family studies. Because of recent technological advances and annotation of common genetic variation in the human genome, it is now possible for investigators to study genetic variation and cancer...
