Patterning and morphogenesis in cancer progression
We are interested in unraveling novel principles of interactions between cancer cells and microenvironmental components such as stromal and immune cells and the extracellular matrix during metastasis. In order to do so, we adopt a multidimensional approach combining classical cell, histological and molecular biological techniques with bioinformatics, computer simulations, rheology and microfluidics.
