Cancer cell plasticity is viewed as a driver of therapy resistance. Here, we propose the concept of “Field-Oriented” Therapy—leveraging plasticity rather than merely enduring it. To learn more, read: aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscov...

Simple cell geometry metrics reveal cancer cell diversity and plasticity and guide combination therapy
Intra-tumour heterogeneity (ITH) and cellular plasticity contribute to therapy resistance. Single-cell transcriptomics is the gold standard for assessing ITH, but this approach remains costly and slow...

Just like there are good and bad macrophages..., there are good and bad NK cells!! This has profound therapeutic implications, far beyond oncology! Thanks to CD for highlighting both papers and the superb and efficient editorial work! Thanks to our collaborators (especially Zihai Li) and funders!

Breaks are key to relaxed & unwind between sessions! This afternoon, @juliensage.bsky.social hit the courts with @marinelab.bsky.social & Lukas Dow - what better way to reset than a (maybe not so) friendly game of tennis🎾 #AMC25

End-of-the-year preprint & first 🧵 where the sky is blue! Ever wondered how a cancer driven by a single mutant oncogene becomes molecularly & cellularly heterogeneous? Why metastases share drivers w/primary tumors but are more aggressive?
