Abstract

Tumour diversity Ependymoma is a type of neural tumour that arises throughout the central nervous system. Using comparative transcriptomics in mouse and human tumours, Johnson et al. home in on mutations that are specific to individual tumour subgroups. In the course of their study, the authors generate the first mouse model of ependymoma and demonstrate the power of interspecific genomic comparisons to interrogate cancer subgroups.
