The document discusses next generation sequencing and its applications in cancer research. It notes that NGS allows studying genetic variations at the individual base level in a fast and affordable manner. The document also distinguishes between driver mutations, which confer a growth advantage to cancer cells, and passenger mutations, which do not provide a selective advantage. Driver mutations can inactivate tumor suppressor genes or activate oncogenes.
This document discusses global health and intersectoral collaboration. It begins by defining global health as health problems that transcend national boundaries and are best addressed through international cooperation.
