Cross-species identification of genomic drivers of squamous cell carcinoma development across preneoplastic intermediates

Cutaneous squamous cell of the skin is a common neoplasm that frequently arises from precancerous actinic keratoses. Here, the authors carry out genomic analysis on matched sets of human lesions and compare with those in ultraviolet treated mice and identify conserved drivers of tumour development.
