Prof. Sir Mel Greaves is a legend indeed... the founding director of our @CEC_ICR
26 Mar 2024
Chatted to Prof Sir Mel Greaves tonight at an event, one of @ICR_London ‘s most celebrated scientists & a world leader in childhood leukemia research
This man is amazing & I can’t believe more people in UK/world don’t know about his work or the work of @ICR_London

New preprint with @vinaya_sn! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
We explored the war between colorectal cancers and the immune system and how CRCs change the epigenome, microenvironment and genetics to win it.
The highlights:

🔄 Plasticity is a fundamental evolutionary strategy in neuroblastoma.
☯️ Plasticity is redefined as a dynamic system, both a process and a trait, subject to Darwinian selection.
💊 Targeting plasticity systems offers new therapeutic approaches for high-risk neuroblastoma.
