Enabling CNV Studies from Single Cells Using Whole Genome Amplification and Low Pass Sequencing

In this video, Cancer Research UK explains what cancer is and how it starts.

It may seem that rabbits that walk with their hind legs over their head--like an acrobat walking on her hands--belong in a circus, but this breed spends almost all the time in a lab. By comparing these sauteur d’Alfort with run-of-the-mill breeds, researchers are learning what it takes to move limbs in a coordinated way. Now, they have pinned down the single genetic mutation that likely causes this peculiar form of locomotion.

In this episode we will be speaking with Professor Bissan Al-Lazikani, from the Institute of Cancer Research about how data science and machine learning approaches are used for cancer drug discovery and treatment adaptation.
