This film introduces how DNA sequencing can be used to find mutations that cause cancer. It describes how it is being used to understand a transmissible cancer affecting the Tasmanian devil.

This video is from 'Saving the Devil' -- a multimedia resource that tells the story of the Tasmanian devil and how science, in particular genomics, is playing a role in trying to save the species from extinction.
