Genomics England: 100,000 Genomes Project

Clare Turnbull, MD, PhD, gives an overview of her talk at the 2015 National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Cancer Conference, where the Genomics England clinical interpretation partnership (GeCIP) was presented. In her talk, Dr Turnbull described how the programme plans to sequence the whole genome of thousands of cancer patients recruited within the NHS. This will generate enormous data and sample resources that will be made searchable through GeCIP.
