The study focused on using the techniques of (Whole Exome Sequencing) to identify the skin cancer-causing mutations in a Palestinian family. The findings revealed a genetic mutation "ERCC2 (p.R683Q)" which was inherited in the family, which may be responsible for causing the skin cancer.  The study sheds light on the importance of studying genetic mutations of cancer patients and their families in Palestine to guide the diagnosis and management for patients and their families.

This came during the announcement of the winning projects by the Al-Nayzak Foundation for Supportive Education and Scientific Creativity, in a ceremony previously held in the city of Ramallah, in partnership with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, the Supreme Council for Creativity, the Swedish Diakonia Foundation, and the Information Sciences Syndicate. The closing ceremony included an exhibition of a number of creative technological projects from various governorates of the country specializing in artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things.

The exhibition aims to shed light on the reality in Palestine and highlight the names of distinguished Palestinian photographers in the field of photojournalism. The exhibition was visited by more than 2,000 people interested in photography and the Palestinian case, in addition to a number of prominent figures.
