Our understanding of the role of genetic and epigenetic changes in the formation of human cancers continues to be advanced by genomic technologies. Current techniques for studying cancer genomes and how heritable changes can lead to treatment resistance will be discussed. Prerequisite: MBB 331 and MBB 342 with a minimum grade of C or permission of the instructor. Students with credit for MBB 460 under the title "Cancer Genomics" may not take this course for further credit.
