Grant Activity:
Genetic mosaicism as a stable and robust blood DNA biomarker for precision risk assessment for cancer
Purpose:
To fully personalise cancer screening, we need to develop biomarkers that can be measured simply to identify those most at risk. This project will assess how analysis of small, non-inheritable gene changes, (somatic mosaicism) in blood cells can be used to measure cancer risk. Our data will support development of a simple blood test to enable targeted screening of people who are at risk of future cancer development due to acquired mutations over their lifetime.
