Using a collaborative team science approach, the Center for Cancer Genomics engages in three complementary subdisciplines within cancer genomics: genome sequencing, functional genomics, and computational genomics.
CCG Data and Resources
An overarching goal of the Center for Cancer Genomics is to create genomics resources for the research community, and a key resource is our data.
Research Areas
-
Cancer Genome SequencingCancer genome sequencing identifies alterations in cancer that contribute to cancer growth, metastasis, and recurrence.
-
Functional GenomicsFunctional genomics studies the role of particular genes and pathways in the development and progression of cancer and develops therapeutic strategies to target them.
-
Computational GenomicsComputational genomics uses statistical and computational approaches to derive insight from big data on cancer.
