The paper identifies gene dosage effects on telomere maintenance and disease pathways in neuroblastoma using genomic and transcriptomic data from 115 tumors.

The paper shows that in yeast lacking MutSβ function, mutations in simple sequence repeats are mostly deletions and occur at different rates depending on repeat length.

The paper identifies persistent smoking-related immune alterations in airway tissues and links them to genetic risk factors and lung cancer risk using transcriptomic data and GWAS integration.
