Will focus on Lung CA and Esophageal CA. Lung will allow for work on cytogenetics in parallel with genomics working group. Esophageal will coalesce with Lung with regards to anatomy while not needing the same levels of genomic work. Therefore, this will help advance two datasets.
Work on aspects of the solid tumors will also serve as a training environment for new members of this group without rehashing the past several years of development
