Principal Investigator: Peggy Porter and Diana Buist
Co-Investigators: Erin Bowles
Funder:  National Cancer Institute
Project Dates:   August 1, 2004 – May 31, 2009

Abstract:
A team skilled in genomics, pathology, epidemiology, biostatistics and clinical research will:

  1. Identify frequent losses and gains of genetic material using array comparative genomic hybridization analysis on a large set of purified breast tumor samples.
  2. Determine the relation between specific regions of copy number change and particular patient and tumor attributes.
