What causes bladder cancer initiating mutations?
Our paper in Science Advances asks the question: can BK virus infections of normal urothelium lead to the APOBEC3 mutational signatures found in bladder cancers?
We found that they can!

Interested in #bladdercancer? Come to the Bladder Cancer Translational Research Meeting in Brimingham on the 28th Feb. I'm presenting on APOBECs and cancer initiation. Prof Maria De Santis is talking about treating metastatic disease and loads more exciting speakers.
