Pan-cancer image-based detection of clinically actionable genetic alterations

Jakob Nikolas Kather, Lara R. Heij, Heike I. Grabsch et al. · 27 Jul 2020

Molecular alterations in cancer can cause phenotypic changes in tumor cells and their micro-environment. Routine histopathology tissue slides - which are ubiquitously available - can reflect such morphological changes. Here, we show that deep learning can consistently infer a wide range of genetic mutations, molecular tumor subtypes, gene expression signatures and standard pathology biomarkers directly…

Cell type and gene expression deconvolution with BayesPrism enables Bayesian integrative analysis across bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing in oncology

Tinyi Chu, Zhong Wang, Dana Pe’er et al. · 25 Apr 2022

Inferring single-cell compositions and their contributions to global gene expression changes from bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) datasets is a major challenge in oncology. Here we develop Bayesian cell proportion reconstruction inferred using statistical marginalization (BayesPrism), a Bayesian method to predict cellular composition and gene expression in individual cell types from bulk RNA-seq, using patient-derived, scRNA-seq…

Nature Cancer template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Nature Cancer format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Nature Cancer template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Nature Cancer use?
Nature Cancer uses Superscript numbered (Nature) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Nature Cancer 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Nature Cancer?
No. DocuGuru generates the sn-jnl LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Springer Nature-ready Nature Cancer document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Nature Cancer template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Nature Cancer format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
What is Nature Cancer?
Nature Portfolio journal (Springer Nature). It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by Springer Nature.
Can I export a submission-ready Nature Cancer PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Nature Cancer template (the sn-jnl class) that is ready to submit to Springer Nature, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Nature Cancer template cost?
You can start writing in the Nature Cancer template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Nature Cancer PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
