Title: Bridging the gap: The impact of genetic ancestry on routes to tumorigenesis
Abstract: Whether ancestry drives molecular differences that underlie disparities in cancer incidence and outcome is poorly understood. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Carrot-Zhang et al., through a rigorous analytical framework, explore ancestry-specific patterns of molecular alterations in cancers and demonstrate the need for novel strategies to address this formidable challenge. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
