Congratulations Marek Piprek MarineLab🥳 "With this opportunity, we can validate our findings in unexplored spatial dimensions by using a carefully pre-designed PanCancer Panel." Looking forward to where the science will take you, Marek!

I’m really grateful to Vizgen for trusting in our project! And even more excited to see what data is hiding in the unexplored spatial dimension of metastatic melanoma.

Can’t wait either! I think it will be a fantastic meeting for metastasis explorers 😊

One that study stemness of cancer cells can forget that there is a bright side to that

When science meets art. It’s a pity that I was not a part of the lab (yet) when it happened

Exciting! Over the next 4 days, I'll be tweeting from the EMBO Workshop on Metastasis as an event reporter (#EMBOmetastasis). Looking forward to sharing interesting insights and data from the event. Stay tuned for updates! #metastasis #ScienceCommunication #CancerResearch #EMBO

Great talk by @JAguirreGhiso on tumor dormancy! 🧬 He discussed how disrupting organ homeostasis is key for metastasis to grow, adding nuance to Paget’s "seed and soil" theory. Mouse models with altered macrophages & chromatin modulators were key! #EMBOmetastasis #TumorDormancy

Interesting talk by ilaria Malanchi! 🧬 She discussed how the regenerative potential of host tissue increases when hosting disseminated tumor cells, promoting metastasis growth. With a link to a specific neutrophil phenotype. #EESMetastasis #CancerResearch #TumorBiology #Neutrophils

Fantastic talk by Marisol Marisol Soengas on melanoma! 🖤⚪ She explored the yin-yang balance in studying complex lymphatics and highlighted exciting findings in dendritic cell biology. A great deep dive into hard-to-study areas! #EESMetastasis #Melanoma #CancerResearch #Immunology

Great talk by Cedric Blanpain on EMT! 🧬 He used single-cell transcriptomics and scATAC-seq to reveal transcriptional regulation across different EMT states. Fascinating insights from a great mouse model! #EESMetastasis #EMT #CancerResearch #SingleCellBiology

Congrats Colinda Scheele, Beug Foundation awardee! 🏆 Her team identified the menstrual cycle stage as a key factor in chemotherapy efficacy for breast cancer. Timing treatment to the follicular phase could improve response rates. #EESMetastasis #BreastCancer #CancerResearch

Fantastic talk by @TurajlicLab on clonal fitness in metastasizing populations, based on large patient cohorts. She revealed that acquiring aneuploidy drives metastatic potential—a great role model for clinician-scientists! #EESMetastasis #CancerResearch #ClonalEvolution

Great to see Anke Vandekeere from our CCB_VIB_KUL (@FendtLab) presenting her flash talk! 🌟 She’s investigating the role of palmitate in metastasis. Huge thanks to EMBL for giving young investigators a platform to share our research! #EESMetastasis #CancerResearch #VIB
