The broad, long term objective of this project is to reduce morbidity and mortality caused by papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) which accounts for - 80% of all thyroid cancer. PTC displays remarl

Public Health Relevance

At first the major benefit of finding predisposing genes is likely to relate to the insight they provide in our understanding of pathways of disease causation. Given the low penetrance of many or most of the genes, it is possible that they will have only a limited impact on diagnostics and risk assessment except in the case of familial PTC. For this Project, we are focused on high penetrance genes in families based on our prior results to dissect gene function and to evaluate further families using newer whole genome sequencing.
