Estimating individual cancer risks in the UK national breast screening programme: A feasibility study (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Diffey, J., Hufton, A., Astley, S., Mercer, C., & Maxwell, A. (2008). Estimating individual cancer risks in the UK national breast screening programme: A feasibility study. In International Workshop on Digital Mammography (469-476). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-70538-3_65

Conventional risk models for the development of breast cancer use inputs such as age, weight, hormonal factors and family history to compute individual breast cancer risk. These are employed in the management of women at high risk. The addition of br...

Inferring the function of genes from synthetic lethal mutations (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Ray, O., & Bryant, C. (2008). Inferring the function of genes from synthetic lethal mutations. In F. Xhafa, & L. Barolli (Eds.), Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive Systems (667-671). https://doi.org/10.1109/CISIS.2008.124

Techniques for detecting synthetic lethal mutations in double gene deletion experiments are emerging as powerful tool for analysing genes in parallel or overlapping pathways with a shared function. This paper introduces a logic-based approach that us... Read More about Inferring the function of genes from synthetic lethal mutations.
