###### Charles Chapple

 Head of Bioinformatics

As a part of our continuous mission to expand and complement VarSome.com knowledge base, we are happy to announce [the addition of cBioPortal data resource focused on somatic variant information](https://varsome.com/variant/hg19/BRAF%3AV600E#cancer-samples).

With cBioPortal, you will find aggregated data from various studies displayed in diagrams alongside general variant information. Data include demographic information of the samples (age, ethnicity, gender etc.) and cancer related information (cancer type, tissue types and more).
