Funded Activity Summary

We recently discovered a hidden type of gene regulation that appears to be altered in diverse cancers including leukaemia, melanoma and colon cancer. We will explore this widely relevant mechanism using molecular and computational tools. We created the only computer program able to detect this type of regulation and will now share our discovery with cancer scientists through cloud computing technology.
