Title of the project:
Discovering non-canonical driver mutations in cancer in high-throughput using endogenous models

Most point mutations found in cancer are functionally uncharacterized and hence cannot be exploited for patient stratification and therapy decisions. Current approaches to study mutations endogenously are time-consuming and lack the possibility for high-throughput. In this project, we focus on the introduction of comprehensive libraries of targeted mutations endogenously into the cell genome using innovative CRISPR-derived tools to assess their functional impact and their impact on therapy response and resistance.
