Combining genomics data from the TRACERx non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort and experimental data, we report that alterations in _FAT1_ are selected early during lung cancer evolution


and cause chromosomal instability and whole-genome doubling. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS
