# COSMIC Database

## Overview

COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) is the world's largest and most comprehensive database for exploring somatic mutations in human cancer. Access COSMIC's extensive collection of cancer genomics data, including millions of mutations across thousands of cancer types, curated gene lists, mutational signatures, and clinical annotations programmatically.

## When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:
- Downloading cancer mutation data from COSMIC
- Accessing the Cancer Gene Census for curated cancer gene lists
- Retrieving mutational signature profiles
- Querying structural variants, copy number alterations, or gene fusions
- Analyzing drug resistance mutations
