Thank you to Erin Digitale @Stanford_Neuro for writing this excellent article on our #CancerNeuroscience work 🧠
A new branch of oncology, cancer neuroscience, offers hope for hard-to-treat brain tumors.

It was a privilege to lead this #CancerNeuroscience study on how glioma can recruit mechanisms of adaptive plasticity to promote cancer growth. I am eternally grateful to have an incredible mentor @michelle_monje and to have collaborated with such an outstanding group scientists
ALT Using optogenetic depolarization of the glioma cells, we found that the larger the current, the bigger the growth effect. Stronger synapses, bigger currents, promote greater tumor cell proliferation.

#CancerNeuroscience work by the brilliant postdoc @Kathryn_RTaylor published (open access) today demonstrates that malignant gliomas #DIPG #GBM recruit mechanisms of synaptic plasticity to drive cancer growth. A thread… (1/ )

The idea that cancer cells can hijack brain plasticity — subverting healthy brain processes to promote growth — is gaining traction. trib.al/M7XBEkl

The #Hallmarks of #Cancer constitute a theoretical framework for rationalizing the vast complexity of cancer & its underlying mechanisms. Here we discuss nervous system-cancer interactions ‘‘enabling’’ hallmark functions & consequent cancer pathogenesis
