KDM6 Demethylases Contribute to EWSR1::FLI1-Driven Oncogenic Reprogramming in Ewing Sarcoma
Abstract. Ewing Sarcoma (EwS) is a highly aggressive tumor arising in bones and soft tissues driven by the fusion oncoprotein EWSR1::FLI1. This aberrant transcription factor binds to GGAA microsatelli...

Today our colleague Bet Figuerola @efigbo.bsky.social , presented her work on the genomics analysis of a singular cancer patient at the Node Seminar session of #IRBBarcelona. Genomics helps us to understand the origins and evolution of cancer contributing to knowledge with possible clinical impact.
