Researchers have developed a means of speeding up the discovery of cancer-related genes and validating their function in living animals. A collaborative effort yielded a large-scale, rapid, cost-effective genetic screen that in a preliminary test succeeded in uncovering 13 new tumor suppressors in human liver cancer, many of which have not been linked to cancer before.
