🔬 An #IBEC-led study has demonstrated the ability of #ColorectalCancer stem cells to change their mechanical properties, facilitating the successful metastatic process.
🧫 They did this using patient derived tumour #organoids.

This is the result of a fantastic collaboration with many great scientists @XavierTrepat @valeria_ventur @adriacanyellas @juanfraam @LeoneRossetti @Ruprecht_Lab @GuckLab @diz_lab and others! Made possible also by all the core facilities at @IBECBarcelona and @PCB_UB !

Are colorectal cancer stem cells mechanically distinct from the rest of the tumor? @SeforaConti addressed this question using patient-derived colorectal cancer organoids. The answer is yes and you can read it in our new preprint (LGR5 CSCs labelled red)

The preprint of a great collaboration with @SeforaConti is finally out! Check it out to know more about the mechanical differences of cancer stem cells vs the rest of the tumor, I can ensure for super nice blebs (and much more!)

Incredible talk by @estrade_sonia at #YoungJJESPBBN meeting about the still so bleak situation of gender equality in academia and in Spain in general. No doubt there is still so much to improve!

One of the studies mentioned pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.12… showed how identical CVs sent by fake female and male candidates are differently evaluated in favor of the male candidate! A lot to think about..

Incredibly excited to share our article “Metastatic recurrence in colorectal cancer arises from residual EMP1 cells” published today @Nature. I hope that you like it! A big thank you to all the co-authors for all their hard work! Highlights in the🧵 1/20
