Using somatic variant richness to mine signals from rare variants in the cancer genome

Sequencing cancer genomes reveals low frequency novel somatic variants without known function. Here, the authors leverage statistical methodology from the fields of computational linguistics and ecology to highlight the potentially important signals harboured by these novel variants that are often d...

Sumario:Sequencing cancer genomes reveals low frequency novel somatic variants without known function. Here, the authors leverage statistical methodology from the fields of computational linguistics and ecology to highlight the potentially important signals harboured by these novel variants that are often dismissed.
