Today, all 3 centers of excellence in pediatric oncology research were invited by INCa to present what they have been up to during their first year of existence.
We were delighted to showcase everything we have put in place, including our beloved #RockBands, ongoing and upcoming projects.

SouthROCK is all about sharing and mutualizing: expertise, samples, models, tools, data… you name it.
This way all the participating teams can lift each other up 💪🏻

We brought fluorescence-labeled #DIPG cells from @crcl-research.bsky.social this week. This will allow us to switch some of our experiments from endpoint to longitudinal follow-up.
Thanks to @southrock.bsky.social, we can now circulate all our samples from Lyon to Marseille and vice versa. So cool!

Headed by Laura Broutier from CRCL & funded by INCa, this collaborative project uses patient-derived tumoroids, drug screening and mathematical modeling to develop more effective treatments for #Rhabdomyosarcoma.
This is so @southrock.bsky.social 🤩

NEW EQUIPMENT JUST DROPPED!
Thanks to @southrock.bsky.social, we will upgrade the HiTS drug screening platform of @crcm.bsky.social with several devices.
Today, we installed a ViaFlo (INTEGRA), which will offer flexibility for our drug screening on 3D models, especially patient-derived tumoroids.

Yesterday, we held one of our regular steering committee meetings with all the clinicians and researchers in charge of our scientific program.
The occasion to reflect on our first year of existence and prioritize our actions for year 2.

The Marseille research community stood up for Science today.
Members of SouthROCK joined in to protest against the ongoing dismantlement of academic research and harassment of scientists in the US and around the world.

I hope there will be hundreds of marches around the world to stand up for science tomorrow.

Last but not least, the 9th #RockBand is everything cancer metabolism.
From defining metabolic vulnerabilities in pediatric cancers, the impact of metabolic inhibitors on developmental pathways and the slightly reverse impact of developmental alterations on cell metabolism.

Our second Humanities & Social Sciences #RockBand will focus on cancer perception, as well as action and reaction in the face of #ChildhoodCancer.
It will notably question public engagement of cancer researchers and clinicians

How do you break the century-old frontier between medical #Hematology and #Oncology?
In our Centre of Excellence we will try to break barriers and build true transdisciplinary projects to improve the care and prevention in pediatric oncology. For that, we created the #RockBand « Crossroads ».

Entirely dedicated to studying the impact of adapted physical activity (APA) throughout life, the #RunningStones is made of pediatric oncologists and muscle biologists.
Together they will define how APA can improve muscle health and treatment tolerance.

SouthROCK is all about collaborations.
Collaborations between Lyon and Marseille, between clinicians and biologists, between disciplines…
This is why we mostly had presentations from duos of scientists (and even trios and quatuors!) over the past two days.
It was lots of fun and inspiring
