A Saudi scholarship student has achieved a new scientific landmark after he discovered two new genes that have close links with breast cancer. Hani Chaudhry, a Ph.D. student sent by King Abdulaziz University to Oxford University, has been conducting his study for two years using next generation sequencing (NGS) techniques to decode and identify the genetics of cancer cells. Saudi students reportedly studied the activity of genes in more than 120 cases of breast cancer at Oxford University Hospital. Based on these studies, he discovered more than 72 genes that were not known before. Two were subject to exhaustive tests that will hopefully play a leading role in stopping the growth of cancer cells. The activity of the two genes was proven in more than 260 cases of breast cancer patients. This can be used as indicators for the early diagnosis of breast cancer. Chaudhry is currently registering his scientific achievement at the Human Genome Organization (HUGO), whose reference will be made under the name of King Abdulaziz University (KAU). HUGO is the international organization of scientists involved in human genetics. It has increased its membership base to over 1,200 members, and played an essential role behind the scenes in the human genome project. Meanwhile, senior researchers at Oxford University have appreciated Chaudhry’s achievement of this scientific landmark.
