Breast cancer tumours show heterogeneity at all levels: as genomic variation, tissue heterogeneity and heterogeneous appearance in radiological images. Data at all these levels are available, but so far there have been no integrative studies where all levels of heterogeneity are combined to gain comprehensive understanding of the disease. My project aims to fill this major gap by describing, comparing and correlating breast cancer heterogeneity at multiple levels.
