Investigators with The Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network discovered genomic differences in head and neck cancers caused by infection with the human papillomavirus. Researchers also uncovered new smoking-related cancer subtypes and potential new drug targets, and found numerous genomic similarities with other cancer types.
The NCI Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN) has published a cluster of papers intended to advance the framework of spatial omics, the science of profiling morphological and molecular features of human cancers in two and three dimensions.
