Funded Activity Summary

Studies investigating thousands of genetic markers have revolutionised our understanding of genes involved in cancer. They have also shown that a single gene can be associated with multiple cancers. This project will discover new genes involved in endometrial cancer by detailed genetic analysis, and investigate the genetic similarities between endometrial cancer and different cancers. Results will improve the understanding of cancer and provide opportunity to discover future cancer treatments.
