Our take: For those that have had cancer or know someone that has, any new findings for improving the treatment for cancer is a relief. Judy Woodruff, of PBS Newshour, interviews Dr. Harold Varmus, about the institute's findings:

"The findings were published yesterday in the journal 'Nature' as part of a comprehensive genetic analysis of breast cancer."
