Tumors are made of evolving and heterogeneous populations of cells which arise from successive appearance and expansion of subclonal populations, following acquisition of …
Systematic DNA sequencing of cancer samples has highlighted the importance of two aspects of cancer genomics: intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) and mutational processes …
The vast majority of cancer next-generation sequencing data consist of bulk samples composed of mixtures of cancer and normal cells. To study tumor evolution, subclonal …

Background Each tumour is a community of cells related through a common ancestry. Each cell in this community faces a slightly different set of selective pressures, and evolves at least …
The possibility to sequence DNA in cancer samples has triggered much effort recently to identify the forces at the genomic level that shape tumorigenesis and cancer progression. It …
Accessing the repertoire of cancer somatic alterations has been instrumental in our current understanding of carcinogenesis. However, efforts in genomic characterization of cancers …
