Very nice work! This bias is most noticeable in genes with weak dependency effects where the top correlates are the genes in the same chromosome arm. Very timely, stay tuned for an update on 23Q2 The Cancer Dependency Map Project release where we made a correction that accounts for this effect
Nature Cancer The following thread is a “tweetorial” on our study Genome-scale functional genomics identify genes preferentially essential for multiple myeloma cells compared to other neoplasias nature.com/articles/s4301… rdcu.be/dc490 #mmsm #myeloma #CRISPR Dana-Farber Broad Institute
Nature Cancer Dana-Farber Broad Institute We teamed up with The Cancer Dependency Map Project to systematically characterize the molecular vulnerabilities of MM cells through genome-scale CRISPR gene-editing screens. We also performed further preclinical characterization of key genes selected by these screens (3/n)
Impressive work using The Cancer Dependency Map Project data to identify DCAF5 as a synthetic lethal target in SMARCB1 mutant cancers. Congrats The Roberts Lab !!!😍
Excited to chair a session at #AACR24 on "Systematic Functional Approaches to Understanding and Targeting Cancer" We've got an amazing lineup of speakers ready to share their insights! Alison M. Taylor Chris Tape Alice Berger abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/20272/s…
Amazing collaboration partners, meet the PRISM team right at their booth. PRISM rapidly screens a wide range of drugs across more than 900 human cancer cell line models using a high-throughput, multiplexed approach. #AACR24 theprismlab.org Francisca Vazquez and Jennifer
