Abstract
The Cancer Genomic Atlas (TCGA) is a publicly accessible cancer data repository and tool that allows us to understand the molecular basis of cancer through the application of genomics and proteomics. So far, researchers have been able to diagnose 33 cancer types including 10 rare cancer types. The key features of TCGA are to make the data collection process publicly accessible for the better understanding of the molecular and genetic basis of cancer and its mechanism of action along with its prevention. Studies on different cancer types along with comprehensive pan cancer analysis have expanded the understanding and purpose of TCGA. Ever since its’ conceptualization, its’ high-throughput approach has provided a platform for the identification of genes and pathways involved in cancers and accurate classification of cancers.
