Symposium: ecDNA
Andreas Ventura showed that normal primary cells can propagate ecDNAs, and that ecDNAs can promote transformation and tumorigenesis in vivo, using elegant in vitro and in vivo models of ecDNA. Fantastic work! #EACR2025

Paola Scaffidi, PhD shared with us how disruption of the epigenetic regulatory network increases the tolerance of cancer cells and how these "transcriptionally numb" cells increasing the chance of long-term adaptation! - Epigenetic dysregulation and cancer evolution! #EACR2025
