Excited to share our new Review on CAFs! A true collective effort with so many brilliant colleagues @BiffiGiulia @akshayk25 @FatimaMechta @shouval @MaraShermanLab @TurleyLabGNE @IamLinghua . Honored to be part of this journey! cell.com/cancer-cell/fu…

www.cell.com Molecular phenotypes and spatial archetypes: A new framework for cancer-associated fibroblasts In this review, Liu et al. propose a unifying framework that organizes cancer-associated fibroblasts into conserved molecular phenotypes and spatial archetypes. By linking cellular lineage, tissue...

Have you ever wondered why do large (>3cm) & Mixed Type IPMNs have a higher risk of invasive neoplasia and carcinoma?
In these @JAMASurgery & @acsJACS publications led by @amudhan_kannan for our research group we attempt to decipher the biological behavior of IPMN using NGS

Our paper online now, CAF molecular phenotypes are more conserved than we thought across organs. Plus we now know more details about apCAFs. Please check it out👉Cancer Cell cell.com/cancer-cell/fu…
