DNA Methylation and Breast Cancer: Signals of Mechanism and Risk
February 21, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Alterations in epigenetic processes have been implicated in breast cancer development. One such epigenetic process — DNA methylation — might provide important insights into breast cancer. In this seminar, Dr. Jacob Kresovich will describe how changes in breast tissue DNA methylation may steer development towards specific tumor subtypes. He will also demonstrate novel ways that use blood methylation to assess breast cancer risk.
