Detecting CNV without normal controls | AACR 2015

Written by | Published: 04.20.2015

Jan Budczies (Charité University, Berlin Germany) presented a poster titled “Detection of copy number variations in beast cancer research samples using targeted sequencing without normal tissue controls” at the recent American Association for Cancer Research meeting in Philadelphia, PA.

In this video interview he highlights his approach to CNV sequencing data using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Cancer Hotspot V2 and the Ion PGM™ System.

A collaborator of his (and co-author on the poster) was Dr. Volker Endris (Heidelburg Medical Hospital, Heidelburg Germany), and was profiled in an article entitled “Accelerating cancer marker discovery in FFPE samples: making the switch from Sanger to NGS” (PDF).
