Science. 2021;372(6543):eabg2538. doi: 10.1126/science.abg2538.Radioactive iodine (131I)-exposed children in the region of Chernobyl (Ukraine) showed an increased incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) after the 1986 nuclear plant accident [1]. This so far the largest and most comprehensive study to characterize the genomic landscape of radiation induced PTC in a large n...
