Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft fördert neue Forschergruppe an der Universität und am Universitätsklinikum Freiburg
Eine neue Forschergruppe an der Universität und am Universitätsklinikum Freiburg will die akute myeloische Leukämie (AML) – eine bösartige Erkrankung des Blutes, die jährlich bei etwa 3.000 Menschen in Deutschland diagnostiziert wird – aus grundlagenwissenschaftlicher und klinischer Perspektive untersuchen.

Researchers at Washington University in St., Louis, using powerful algorithms developed by computer scientists at Brown University, have assembled the most complete genetic profile yet of acute myeloid leukemia, an aggressive form of blood cancer. Findings are reported in the New England Journal of Medicine.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — Powerful data-sifting algorithms developed by computer scientists at Brown University are helping to untangle the profoundly complex genetics of cancer.
In a study reported on May 1, 2013, in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers from Washington University in St. Louis used two algorithms developed at Brown to assemble the most complete genetic profile yet of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive form of blood cancer. The researchers hope the work will lead to new AML treatments based on the genetics of each patient’s disease. (more…)
