1/ "How long have I had it for?"

Our patients with #bloodcancer have always wanted to know. We set out to answer it. We studied patients with MPN #mpnsm and found quite unexpected results. Excited to share our preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
2/ We took single blood cells from patients with MPN and grew each cell into a colony. We then sequenced each colony's whole genome (>950 whole genomes).
3/ We used DNA mutations to trace the ancestral relationships between colonies - building a "family tree" of blood production for each patient. We could then time the cancer driving genetic events and trace how the mutant clones expanded over the patient’s life.
