متن کاملPancreatic cancer genetic epidemiology consortium.
We have organized the Pancreatic Cancer Genetic Epidemiology (PACGENE) Consortium to identify susceptibility genes in familial pancreatic cancer (FPC). The Consortium comprises seven data collection centers, a statistical genetics core, and a pathology/archival genotyping core. We recruit kindreds containing two or more affected blood relatives ascertained through incident pancreatic adenocarci...
