Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. Most of the breast cancers are sporadic with no apparent inheritance factor but about 5-10% is believed to be caused by an inherited predisposition.

23. Exploration of large molecular datasets using global gene networks : computational methods and tools
Sammanfattning : Defining gene expression profiles and mapping complex interactions between molecular regulators and proteins is a key for understanding biological processes and the functional properties of cells, which is therefore, the focus on numerous experimental studies. Small-scale biochemical analyses deliver high-quality data, but lack coverage, whereas high throughput sequencing reveals thousands of interactions which can be error-prone and require proper computational methods to discover true relations.
