Whole Genome Sequencing and RNA Sequencing of the CBTN Bank for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas…

Research into adult cancer has benefited greatly from large scale genomic research. Until now due to the limited resources and availability pediatric brain tumors have not been part of large-scale genomic generation efforts. The CBTN aims to create a comprehensive genomic atlas for use by researchers worldwide to unlock how brain tumors develop, grow, survive, and how they can be treated and cured.

Telomere Length Analysis of CNS Tumors in the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas…

December 22, 2020

Through analysis of data provided through the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas, researchers analyze the lengths of telomeres (structures that cap the ends of chromosomes) found in pediatric brain tumors as a way to identify therapeutic needs for various tumor types.
