Thank you Cancer Grand Challenges team for disseminating our study on osteosarcoma cell.com/cell/fulltext/… Incredibly excited to present this and other stories from the lab on complex cancer genomes at such an unparalleled venue The Royal Society! Thanks Team #eDyNAmiC for the invite! 🙏🙌


Join us The Royal Society in June for the first conference focused on all things extrachromosomal DNA! In addition to this incredible line-up we have plenty of spots for selected talks too, submit your abstract now!


The first paper from the #Cancer_Neuroscience Lab The Francis Crick Institute just got published in nature ! Checkout how lung cancer cells form their own electrical network and use that to promote malignancy, and how #intratumoural_heterogeneity and #lactate_shuttle play a role in that👉



Exciting news for the cancer research community! Read more about the new challenges now in Cancer Discovery: doi.org/10.1158/2159-8…


Join our very own Rita Cha at the Cancer Grand Challenges Challenges Conference on extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) this June in London. For more details about the conference and registration, check out: dlvr.it/TJVmQV

We are finalizing the programme of our Cancer Grand Challenges Challenges Conference on #ecDNAs (June, London🇬🇧), and I couldn't be more proud and excited! Watch this space for updates! Also, register soon as we're nearly sold out! 👇 cancergrandchallenges.org/ecDNA-2025

🚨New in nature Mutographs identified mutational signatures caused by the bacterial genotoxin colibactin are enriched in early onset colorectal cancer cases Read more about the findings, the open questions and the curiosities of colibactin 👇 features.cancerresearchuk.org/cancergrandcha…


Exceptional work from Rushika M. Perera identifies differential utilization of PCSK9 / cholesterol synthesis pathways and regulation of #ferroptosis as key determinants of pancreatic cancer metastasis. 🔥🤩 nature.com/articles/s4158…


Move over AlphaFold3. Boltz-2 has arrived, bringing affinity prediction for protein-small molecule interactions! Can’t wait to see what this group does next. It was a pleasure writing this piece. Thanks to Regina Barzilay & Jeremy Wohlwend, and congratulations to all involved!

A massive thank you to everyone at #CGCecDNA, especially our co-organisers Mischel Lab, Mariam Jamal-Hanjani and Howard Chang, and all of our fantastic speakers! Together we’ll tackle the challenge of extrachromosomal DNA.
