The Genetic Landscape of the Childhood Cancer Medulloblastoma

TL;DR: Key differences between the genetic landscapes of adult and childhood cancers are demonstrated, dysregulation of developmental pathways as an important mechanism underlying MBs is highlighted, and a role for a specific type of histone methylation in human tumorigenesis is identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequencing and analysis of Neanderthal genomic DNA

TL;DR: The characterization of Neanderthals from a new perspective is described, based on the development of a Neanderthal metagenomic library and its high-throughput sequencing and analysis, and the finding that the Neanderthal and human genomes are at least 99.5% identical is found.

Sequencing and Analysis of

TL;DR: This initial analysis of the Neanderthal genome advances understanding of the evolutionary relationship of Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis and signifies the dawn of Neanderthal genomics.
