  2. 1. RNA Sequencing for Molecular Diagnostics in Breast Cancer

    Author : Christian Brueffer; Translational Oncogenomics; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cancer; Breast Cancer; RNA sequencing; Gene Expression; Mutation; Biomarker; SCAN-B; Diagnostics; Precision Medicine;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women and, in Sweden, is the most deadly second only to lung cancer. While treatment and diagnostic options have improved in the past decades and short- to mid-term survival is good, long-term survival is much poorer. READ MORE

  4. 2. Breast Cancer Biomarkers with Clinical Relevance Identified by Massively-parallel DNA and RNA Sequencing

    Abstract : Women have a 10% lifetime risk of developing breast cancer, and the disease has surpassed lung cancer as the most frequently diagnosed type of cancer in the world. Breast cancer originates in the epithelial cells of the mammary gland and tumor cells have undergone a series of genetic and phenotypic changes that confer tumor promoting properties. READ MORE

  5. 3. Single-cell RNA sequencing as a tool to study panarthropod evolution

    Author : Brenda Irene Medina Jimenez; Ralf Janssen; Graham Budd; Tatjana Haitina; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Single-cell RNA sequencing; EvoDevo; gene expression; tissue dissociation; cell capture; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution;

    Abstract : Panarthropoda is a monophyletic group comprised of arthropods and lobopods, molting animals with a segmented body, paired appendages, dorsal brain, and ventral nerve cords. Evolutionary Developmental Biology (EvoDevo) is an interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand how changes in development form the basis for variations in morphology and phenotypic evolution, including the genetic network underlying these processes.

  6. 4. Progression of RNA-sequencing to single-cell applications

    Author : Daniel Ramsköld; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : New methods enable new discoveries. My time as a PhD student has run in parallel with the maturation of the RNA-seq method, and I have used it to discover basic properties of gene expression and transcriptomes. My part has been bioinformatics – the computer analysis of biological data. READ MORE

  7. 5. Resolving the Genomic Complexity of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

    Author : Yanara Marincevic-Zuniga; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Caroline Heckman; Uppsala universitet; []
