Colorectal adenoma is the well-established precursor of CRC, yet only a very small proportion of adenomas progress to CRC. Therefore, identification of biomarker associated with adenoma progression is vital for risk stratification and development of intervention strategies. We hypothesize that genomic analysis of adenoma will lead to better understanding of tumorigenesis and identificatio… Show more
