What does it take to truly understand #cancer in all of its complexity? Delighted to share our Review in Cell "Cancer ecosystems: A dynamic interplay across scales" with Daniela Quail, where we propose a multi-scale framework connecting tumor ecology with physiology 🧪⚕️ www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

What can a 200-year-old whale teach us about cancer? 🐋🤔 Bowhead whales are among the longest-lived mammals on Earth, but they rarely get cancer In a new commentary in Molecular Oncology, @ipaniaguacabana.bsky.social and I discuss a landmark study by Firsanov et al that begins to unravel why.. 🧪🧬🧊

We;re hiring Junior Group Leaders! 🔬✨ We’re looking for researchers in immunology, chemical biology, AI in biology, or protein design to launch their own independent groups in our collaborative, international environment. www.nki.nl/news-events/...

A year into Trump’s second presidential term, Nature presents a series of graphics that reveal the impact of his administration on science. 🧪

Understanding why cancers relapse - sometimes years or decades after successful treatment - is a major challenge in the cancer field This perspective in Nature discusses several of the important recent advances and new studies in the field of tumor dormancy 🧪⚕️ www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Very pleased to share our new review "The Evolving Landscape of Brain Metastasis" in @cp-trendscancer.bsky.social 🧠🔬🧪 Grateful to an outstanding team of co-authors, all pioneers in the #brain #metastasis field and to @valientelab.bsky.social for co-leading this 🙏🏻 Link: www.cell.com/trends/cance...
