Mechanisms underlying chromosomal instability in cancer are unclear, and difficult to determine. I will talk about the approaches our lab is taking to address this problem. In particular I will present our new approach to analyse aneuploidy rates, giving insights into the mis-segregation propensities of individual chromosomes, and how this might allow us to better define the role of aneuploidy in cancer.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"kent-social-links\"><li><a href='http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/&amp;t=Research Seminar: Pathways to chromosomal instability in cancer' target='_blank'><i class='ksocial-facebook' title='Share via Facebook'><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href='http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Research Seminar: Pathways to chromosomal instability in cancer%20https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/' target='_blank'><i class='ksocial-twitter' title='Share via Twitter'><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href='https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/' target='_blank'><i class='ksocial-google-plus' title='Share via Google Plus'><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href='http:\/\/linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url=https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/&amp;title=Research Seminar: Pathways to chromosomal instability in cancer' target='_blank'><i class='ksocial-linkedin' title='Share via Linked In'><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href='mailto:content=https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/&amp;title=Research Seminar: Pathways to chromosomal instability in cancer' target='_blank'><i class='ksocial-email' title='Share via Email'><\/i><\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Sarah McClelland, Barts Cancer Institute, Queen Mary University of London Tuesday 24th January, 1.00 p.m., Stacey Lecture Theatre 1 &nbsp; Chromosomal instability (CIN), the &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/2017\/01\/18\/research-seminar-pathways-to-chromosomal-instability-in-cancer\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32117,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[50580],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1554"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/32117"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1554"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1555,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1554\/revisions\/1555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/biosciences\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
