Patterns of Somatic Gene Alterations in Oral Cancer
Description: Project Narrative This project "Patterns of Somatic Gene Alterations in Oral Cancer" will investigate the relationship of the major risk factors for Head and Neck cancers with the pattern of inactivation of the major genes responsible for causing these tumors. We believe that the underlying patterns of gene changes may predict disease outcome and lead to new understanding of this cancer, enhancing our ability to both prevent and treat the disease.
