摘要

尽管北美和欧洲在癌症遗传学方面取得了广泛的进展，但非洲大陆在这一重要研究领域的代表性仍然不足。在此，我们重点介绍肯尼亚的一个开创性合作项目，其重点是扩大癌症遗传学服务和对视网膜母细胞瘤（一种典型的遗传性癌症综合征）的研究。

Toward advances in retinoblastoma genetics in Kenya

Despite extensive advancements in cancer genetics in North America and Europe, the African continent remains underrepresented in this vital research area. Here we highlight a pioneering collaborative project in Kenya, with a focus on expanding cancer genetics services and research into retinoblastoma, a prototypical heritable cancer syndrome.

期刊介绍： Chemical Research in Toxicology publishes Articles, Rapid Reports, Chemical Profiles, Reviews, Perspectives, Letters to the Editor, and ToxWatch on a wide range of topics in Toxicology that inform a chemical and molecular understanding and capacity to predict biological outcomes on the basis of structures and processes. The overarching goal of activities reported in the Journal are to provide knowledge and innovative approaches needed to promote intelligent solutions for human safety and ecosystem preservation. The journal emphasizes insight concerning mechanisms of toxicity over phenomenological observations. It upholds rigorous chemical, physical and mathematical standards for characterization and application of modern techniques.
