OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
About 40% of the cancer burden in high income countries can be explained by known risk factors, although international differences in incidence point to other unknown causes. Several established carcinogens leave specific mutation patterns in the cancer genome, ie mutational signatures. This suggests that sequencing large numbers of tumour samples from different populations may be a useful strategy to identify novel causes of cancer.
