When Science & art touch one another. Our cover chosen Molecular Cell. Based on #soniadelaunay #orphism, the painting presents a vibrant and abstract world using colorful geometric shapes, symbolizing the rhythmic patterns within the cell cycle. By irisjoval.com

CONIPHER, our method for automated reconstruction of tumour subclonal structure and phylogeny that we used in our recently published TRACERx studies, is now out in Nature Protocols! (nature.com/articles/s4159…). Welcome to the CONIPHER TREEtorial, just in time for Christmas! 🌲 1/n

Last year we used spatial transcriptomics from 15 samples to explore how Cancer Hallmarks are distributed in space We have just finished a new version where we analyze 63 tumor samples from 10 cancer types to extend the original findings Here's what we learned 👇

NEW REVIEW ARTICLE Nature Cancer – “Aneuploidy and complex genomic rearrangements in cancer evolution” by Peter Van Loo #TobyMBaker #SaraWaise #MaximeTarabichi. Read it here👇 nature.com/articles/s4301… rdcu.be/dxoLb
