Registration for Cancer Cell Plasticity closes on Monday 03 November!
Join us online to explore the fundamental mechanisms that control cancer cell plasticity at multiple biological levels:

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!

Fishing for Metastasis Initiating Cells (MICs): we summarize here a heroic effort from Christoph Klein and Melanie Werner-Klein labs, which describes a MIC population in lymph nodes and how these cells evade immune attack. #metastasis #melanoma #extracellularvesicles #cancerprevention

My first post on BSKY will be a citation from Sydner Brenner (2002): "So genocentric has modern biology become that we have forgotten that the real units of function and structure in an organism are cells and not genes" highlighted by S Quake in this interesting piece.
