Functional genomics holds great promise for the dissection of cancer biology. The elucidation of genetic cooperation and molecular details that govern oncogenesis, metastasis, and response to therapy is made possible by robust technologies for perturbing gene function coupled to quantitative analysis of cancer phenotypes resulting from genetic or epigenetic perturbations. Multiplexed genetic perturbations enable the dissection of cooperative genetic lesions as well as the identification of synthetic lethal gene pairs that hold particular promise for constructing innovative cancer therapies. Lastly, functional genomics strategies enable the highly multiplexed in vivo analysis of genes that govern tumorigenesis as well as of the complex multicellular biology of a tumor, such as immune response and metastasis phenotypes. In this review, we discuss both historical and emerging functional genomics approaches and their impact on the cancer research landscape.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become established as an important imaging modality for the clinical management of disease. This is primarily due to the great tissue contrast inherent in magnetic resonance images of normal and diseased organs. Due to the wide availability of high field magnets and the ability to generate large and rapidly switched magnetic field gradients there is growing interest in applying high resolution MRI to obtain microscopic information. This symposium on MRI microscopy highlights new developments that are leading to increased resolution. The application of high resolution MRI to significant problems in developmental biology and cancer biology will illustrate the potential of these techniques.In combination with a growing interest in obtaining high resolution MRI there is also a growing interest in obtaining functional information from MRI. The great success of MRI in clinical applications is due to the inherent contrast obtained from different tissues leading to anatomical information.
