Abstract :
Recent developments in biotechnology have enabled interrogation of the cell at various levels, leading to many types of "omic" data that provide valuable information on multiple genetic and environmental factors and their interactions. The featured Web extra is a video interview with Mehmet Koyutürk of Case Western Reserve about how biotechnology can track genetic markers to advance cancer research.
