Very excited to launch CELLOGRAMRx a joint project between Australia 🇦🇺 (NHMRC) & Japan 🇯🇵 (AMED) teams to build a pan cancer atlas of oncofetal cells, understand population level differences and identify novel therapeutic targets by employing spatial omics & machine learning approaches!

Scientists can be classified as either Foxes or Hedgehogs; borrowing Isaiah Berlin’s famous use of the saying that “a fox knows many things, but a hedgehog knows one big thing” Hedgehogs: Darwin, Monod, McClintock, Dawkins, Kimura.. Foxes: Wallace, Jacob, Brenner, Gould, Ohta..
