This project will investigate the genetic and environmental causes of melanoma, especially melanoma developing under the age of 40 in Australian families. This project will help to identify which people are at greatest risk of developing melanoma, by identifying the genes involved in melanoma development and the contribution of environmental and lifestyle factors to the disease. We will also determine how much hereditary factors contribute to melanoma risk.

该项目将调查黑色素瘤的遗传和环境原因，特别是澳大利亚家庭中40岁以下的黑色素瘤。该项目将通过确定参与黑色素瘤发展的基因以及环境和生活方式因素对疾病的贡献，帮助确定哪些人患黑色素瘤的风险最大。我们还将确定遗传因素对黑色素瘤风险的影响程度。
