Cancer Genomics and Precision Oncology
Advances in cancer genomics are enabling more personalized treatments. This session will cover:
- Large-Scale Genomic Studies: Discovering genetic mutations that drive cancer through projects like The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).
- Genomic Profiling for Treatment Selection: How genetic tests guide treatment decisions by identifying actionable mutations.
- Overcoming Tumor Heterogeneity: Addressing the challenge of genetic diversity within tumors and its impact on treatment resistance.
