Toward a systematic understanding of cancers: a survey of the pan-cancer study

Studies on molecular aberrations of cancer patients have increased unprecedentedly in scale and accessibility, allowing large-scale integrative cross-cancer analysis. Pan-cancer study is becoming a valuable paradigm for cancer genomics. Here, we review recent advances in this field and highlight the...

description Studies on molecular aberrations of cancer patients have increased unprecedentedly in scale and accessibility, allowing large-scale integrative cross-cancer analysis. Pan-cancer study is becoming a valuable paradigm for cancer genomics. Here, we review recent advances in this field and highlight the potential challenges and directions especially from the computational angle.
