About
The COSMIC Database skill enables researchers and bioinformaticians to programmatically interact with the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer directly within their AI development environment. It streamlines the process of downloading and analyzing extensive datasets, including the Cancer Gene Census, mutational signatures, drug resistance mutations, and structural variants. This skill is essential for integrating high-quality cancer genomics data into bioinformatics pipelines, facilitating tasks like variant annotation, target gene selection, and signature analysis across both GRCh38 and GRCh37 assemblies.
