Here's a list of chromosomal translocations that might appear on The Boards. If anyone finds a typographical error or something that's outright wrong, please post a correction. Once this list has undergone "peer review" on this forum for a couple of days, you might find it helpful to print out and have posted on your cubicle wall for handy reference. Cheers!
