recently compared three methods for classifying breast cancers into molecular subtypes. Aside
from an obvious question of whether they should have centred each gene, an issue previously
discussed in the context of classifying breast-cancer subtypes,2 there is concern that
insufficient attention has been paid to the annotation of probes on the microarray platforms …
