I am thrilled that our paper on kidney cancer is now out in nature!!! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Always fascinating to hear about the latest studies from Cancer Grand Challenges Challenge teams and these updates from Team Mutographs are really exciting! Now the team have identified these signatures, the research community can work backwards to find the cause and try to prevent cases of

And thanks to the brilliant Cancer Grand Challenges team at CRUK for their total support since Mutographs started, as well as wonderful scientific journey with Wellcome Sanger Institute and UC San Diego colleagues (esp Sarah Moody), partners in the 11 countries, and all the great team IARC.
