Project description
Integrative genomic analyses and pathway reconstruction efforts will be implemented to the currently used set of analytical tools as an original and powerful approach to discriminate driver from passenger mutations in the next-generation sequencing of neuroblastoma tumor samples. Gene modules will be obtained and those implicated in normal sympathetic neuronal differentiation will be prioritized for further functional analyses.
