Cancer Genomics, Computational biology and statistics

Our cancer research programmes, including cancer genetics and epigenetics, rely heavily on a wide variety of genomics-based approaches, which are strongly supported by the Centre for Computational Biology.

Several tracks of genomic data showing signal patterns across multiple cancer samples.
