Analysing almost eight thousand tumours across 33 different cancers, researchers say this marks the first time that a framework was created to understand the role of internal factors in driving such genomic alterations. Genomic research have greatly expanded our understanding of disease pathophysiology over the years.

The cost of testing per human genome in 2006 was approximately $14 million , and in less than two decades, an average consumer-purchased genetic test costs $100. The same is becoming true for the healthcare industry, and one of the first major breakthroughs in the area was the 100,000 Genomes Project.
