    Sammanfattning : Esophageal cancer and colorectal cancer represents two major types of gastrointestinal tumors. Though refined surgery and introduction of novel chemotherapeutics have improved outcome, more than 2500 Swedes die from these diseases every year. Novel markers for early diagnosis, prognosis and treatment prediction are therefore needed. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Uncovering causal drivers of complex diseases is yet a difficult challenge. Unlike single-gene disorders complex diseases are heterogeneous and are caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors which complicates the identification of patient subgroups and the disease causal drivers.
