Inferring genetic ancestry from cancer sequencing data. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • Genetic ancestry is an important biological determinant of cancer health disparities that is not captured by self-identified race and ethnicity (SIRE). Belleau et al. recently developed a systematic computational approach to infer genetic ancestry from cancer-derived molecular data from different genomic and transcriptomic profiling assays, creating opportunities to interrogate population-scale data sets.
