This talk will highlight success and difficulties faced in data generation using Next Generation Sequencing with respect to Glioblastoma. In addition, it will also cover various aspects like genetic and epigenetic alterations in glioma, serum biomarkers using high-throughput genomics and proteomics approaches, genome-wide shRNA screening for temozolomide sensitivity and exome sequencing to understand the glioma biology.
