Abstract:
Breast cancer is a complex disease that requires the acquisition of several traits in order to proliferate and spread to nearby and distant tissues. However, many combinations are possible, making it harder to determine their significance. Genome-wide approaches such as gene expression profiling have provided an unbiased and global tool to investigate those traits, allowing investigators to both separate tumors into biologically meaningful categories and then to investigate their features in that context.

Abstract:
By accurately describing cancer genomes, we may link genomic mutations to phenotypic effects and eventually treat cancer patients based on the molecular cause of their disease, rather than generalizing treatment based on cell morphology or tissue of origin. Alteration of DNA copy number is a driving mutational process in the formation and progression of cancer. Deletions and amplifications of specific chromosomal regions are important for cancer diagnosis and prognosis, and copy number analysis has become standard practice for many clinicians and researchers.

Since the completion of the the Human genome project in 2003, the evident complexity of our genome and its regulation has only grown. The idea that having sequenced the human genome would solve this mystery was quickly discarded.

Genetic variations in these regions are therefore abundant in the human population, but their e ects are hard to characterize. Many non-coding variants have been linked to complex disease
