Have a look at this really nice paper by @cassiejclarke.bsky.social and the team describing the interplay between tumor metabolism and immune and ECM microenvironments!
What a great resource!
Am I back from the best conference ever? Yes! But do I also see a crucial tool for the analysis of the #ECMatrix in scRNAseq? Also yes!! Another fantastic tool in collaboration with @nabalabuic.bsky.social π₯π₯π₯
To end the academic year we did a lab seminar day and outing. Cool science, thesis and manuscripts coming together because of this amazing group of people β¨
Honored to have been elected with Patrick Caswell @mcrcellmatrix.bsky.social co-chair of the 2029 Gordon Research Conference on Fibronectin, Integrins, and Related Molecules!
We have big shoes to fill: www.grc.org/fibronectin-..., but are up for the challenge!
Had great time in GRC Fibronectin and related molecules (my lab representing the latter π) in Tuscany and presented our latest work. Also, new and old friends were found!
Visited rainy Scotland
Finalized the collection "Methods and Models in Mammary Gland Biology and Breast Cancer" with @sumbalovakoledova.bsky.social for Journal of Mammary Gland biology and Neoplasia. Check out our editorial on the articles included in the colection π§ͺ
