There are four main topics of research which are closely related to major areas of clinical work. 1. Identifying prognostic and predictive biomarkers in breast cancer patients. 2. Molecular annotation of somatic mutations in sarcoma and the discovery and validation of genetic biomarkers and establishing cell lines and tumor xenografts. 3. Genetic polymorphism in melanoma; vitamin D and malignant melanoma; characterization of tumor response to Melphalan in vivo and relapses. 4. Tissue sampling for various studies: breast, pediatric oncology, sarcoma, skin, hematology
