Scaling for African Inclusion in High-Throughput Whole Cancer Genome Bioinformatic Workflows

2025-07-17

Abstract excerpt

Globally, Sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing the highest mortality rates for several cancer types. Exasperated by a one-size-fits-all, non-African-derived treatment strategies, Africa has largely been excluded from the genomic era and received little benefits from precision oncology. Through a thorough literature review, we identified five whole cancer genome databases that include patients from Sub-Saharan Africa...
