Accurate and efficient detection of copy number variants (CNVs) is of critical importance owing to their significant association with complex genetic diseases. Although algorithms that use whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data provide stable results wit...

DNA copy number variation (CNV) is the type of DNA variation which is associated with various human diseases. CNV ranges in size from 1 kilobase to several megabases on a chromosome. Most of the computational research for cancer classification is tra...
Few methods have been developed to investigate copy number variants (CNVs) based on their predicted pathogenicity. We introduce TADA, a method to prioritise pathogenic CNVs through assisted manual filtering and automated classification, based on an e...
BACKGROUND: Although copy number variations (CNVs) are infrequent, each anomaly is unique, and multiple CNVs can appear simultaneously. Growing evidence suggests that CNVs contribute to a wide range of diseases. When CNVs are detected, assessment of ...

Breast Cancer comprises multiple subtypes implicated in prognosis. Existing stratification methods rely on the expression quantification of small gene sets. Next Generation Sequencing promises large amounts of omic data in the next years. In this sce...
Translating in vitro results from experiments with cancer cell lines to clinical applications requires the selection of appropriate cell line models. Here we present MFmap (model fidelity map), a machine learning model to simultaneously predict the c...
Knowledge of 1p/19q-codeletion and IDH1/2 mutational status is necessary to interpret any investigational study of diffuse gliomas in the modern era. While DNA sequencing is the gold standard for determining IDH mutational status, genome-wide methyla...

Current understanding of the underlying molecular network and mechanism for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is lacking and incomplete. Previous studies suggest that genomic structural variations play an important role in the pathogene...

Detection of DNA copy number alteration in cancer cells is critical to understanding cancer initiation and progression. Widely used methods, such as DNA arrays and genomic DNA sequencing, are relatively expensive and require DNA samples at a microgra...
Sarcomas are malignant soft tissue and bone tumours affecting adults, adolescents and children. They represent a morphologically heterogeneous class of tumours and some entities lack defining histopathological features. Therefore, the diagnosis of sa...
