Genome Medicine 2010, 2:54Cancer genomes: environment and mutational spectra
Whole-genome sequences of cancers reveal the different kinds of mutation caused by environmental carcinogens.
-
Genome Medicine 2010, 2:52Common path to pathogen susceptibility?
Genomic research so far suggests that host susceptibility to different pathogens is controlled by discrete genes and pathways, but as technology develops it may unravel shared mechanisms across multiple pathogen groups.
-
Genome Medicine 2010, 2:51Cloud computing for translational research
Cloud-based analysis offers a valid alternative both in terms of performance and cost to local computational clusters for the integration and analysis of large-scale genomic datasets relevant for translational research.

Genome Medicine 2010, 2:50Post-genomic diagnosis of fetal aneuploidy
Non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal aneuploidies may soon become possible with new genomic and proteomic technologies.
-
Genome Medicine 2010, 2:49Whole proteomes as internal standards in quantitative proteomics
Pooling several proteomes labeled with stable isotopes yields an internal standard that can greatly increase the accuracy of quantitative proteomics.

Quotes
High-throughput experimental and computational technologies are revolutionizing our understanding of life by enabling global systems approaches beyond classical analytical molecular and cellular biology. Genome Medicine is a timely initiative to foster this transition from the highly fragmented scientific and medical landscape to the integrative systems biology and medicine which are needed to translate fundamental discoveries into useful healthcare services for the benefit of individual patients worldwide.
Professor Charles Auffray,
Genome Medicine Section Editor
CNRS Institute of Biological Sciences, France.
