Manta calls structural variants (SVs) and indels from mapped paired-end sequencing reads. It is optimized for analysis of germline variation in small sets of individuals and somatic variation in tumor/normal sample pairs. Manta discovers, assembles and scores large-scale SVs, medium-sized indels ...Tags: Manta, rapid, detection, structural, variants, indels, germline, cancer, sequencing, applications

- We study mechanisms of cancer evolution by using state-of-the-art genomic approaches at the bench and in analysis. Accurate genome reconstruction is our other major area of interest. We also collaborate on important questions for which our expertise in genomics and computation is relevant. Arend'...

Artificial intelligence is more accurate than doctors in diagnosing breast cancer
Artificial intelligence is more accurate than doctors in diagnosing breast cancer from mammograms, a study in the journal Nature suggests. An international team, including researchers from Google Health and Imperial College London, designed and trained a computer model on X-ray im...Tags: Artificial, intelligence, accurate, doctors, diagnosing, breast, cancer

- Lab focuses on examining the mechanisms governing the signalling pathways from DNA damage sensing to the activation of stress-response genes. The long-term goal is to find proteins that are drug targets for cancer treatment (such as radiosensitizers for radiation therapy) or biomarkers that incre...

InfoGenomeR: Integrative reconstruction of cancer genome karyotypes
InfoGenomeR is the Integrative Framework for Genome Reconstruction that uses a breakpoint graph to model the connectivity among genomic segments at the genome-wide scale. InfoGenomeR integrates cancer purity and ploidy, total CNAs, allele-specific CNAs, and haplotype information to identify the o...Tags: Integrative, reconstruction, cancer, genome, karyotypes, chromosome
