The role of single-cell sequencing in studying tumour evolution
Tumour evolution is a complex interplay between the acquisition of somatic (epi)genomic changes in tumour cells and the phenotypic consequences they cause, all in the context of a changing microenvironment. Single-cell sequencing offers a window into this dynamic process at the ultimate resolution o...

description | Tumour evolution is a complex interplay between the acquisition of somatic (epi)genomic changes in tumour cells and the phenotypic consequences they cause, all in the context of a changing microenvironment. Single-cell sequencing offers a window into this dynamic process at the ultimate resolution of individual cells. In this review, we discuss the transformative insight offered by single-cell sequencing technologies for understanding tumour evolution. |
