Abstract excerpt
Numerous studies over the past generation have identified germline variants that increase specific cancer risks. Simultaneously, a revolution in sequencing technology has permitted high-throughput annotations of somatic genomes characterizing individual tumors. However, examining the relationship between germline variants and somatic alteration patterns is hugely challenged by the large numbers of variants in a...
