Welcome to the Atlas 2026
Dear readers,
In recent years, important advances in Cancer Genetics have significantly changed our previous knowledge in the field. Nevertheless, these classical methodologies are still being used on the bedside.
During all this time, a great and multidisciplinary team has been working to combine the new methodologies and advances with the previous content already compiled in the Atlas, which is already a standard tool for all of us, having become like an "old friend" for many. We deeply thank to all of you for continuously using the Atlas.
Atlas is growing and you can easily now by clicking on the world picture, the number of the labs accessing to the Atlas distributed in the world. It is really great to see the constant increase of the new readers. It seems we are in the correct track.
Our idea is to keep the Atlas a tool dynamic, comprehensive and closely related to a quickly changing reality will continue in 2026. Therefore, we are still modified its structure to easily get adapted to new needs.
With that in mind, some contents in the hematologic field may need to be updated according to the WHO2022 classification, renewed with new genetic data in the short term and incorporate to the immense "classic" data already collected and classified in the past by JL Huret, the father of the Atlas, Therefore your feedback is the only way for us to move forward. So we invite you to inform us of any mistake you can detect, or new fresh ideas to develop.
We are still planning to implement a social forum, that will be available in different languages. We sincerely hope that it will serve as a great tool to further interconnect everyone in the genetics community in cancer.
In the next months, we expect to incorporate several new chapters, for which we will need your strong cooperation, fresh ideas, and important contributions. Please contact us before any submission possible, for avoiding duplication The Atlas is now Our Atlas, an open tool where everybody is invited and welcome to collaborate
We look forward to closely working with you on a better version of The Atlas, Our Atlas.
