This paper presents near-complete, haplotype-resolved assemblies of a pancreatic cancer genome and normal tissue, identifying extensive somatic variants and epigenetic changes in previously excluded regions.

Wakhan reconstructs chromosome-scale copy number profiles of tumor genomes using long-read sequencing, showing better consistency with data than existing methods.

DeepSomatic is a deep learning method for detecting somatic variants from short-read and long-read sequencing data, outperforming existing callers, especially for indels.

The paper describes a comprehensive genomic dataset from a tumor-normal pair with broad consent, generated using multiple sequencing technologies for benchmarking somatic variant detection.

Severus detects and characterizes somatic structural variations in tumor genomes using long reads, outperforming existing methods in accuracy and revealing clinically relevant rearrangements.

This study shows that HiFi long-read sequencing can detect clinically relevant structural variants in pediatric leukemia, improving subtype classification.
