#CellPlasticity—the ability of cells to change their identity—is vital for tissue growth and repair. But when it goes unchecked, it can fuel #cancer. Our latest study examines how to block #LiverCancer by actively suppressing plasticity. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #CancerBiology

I've never been more excited to be (a very minor) part of a collaboration than this tour-de-force by the Elinav labs at @dkfz.bsky.social and WIS. Groundbreaking approach to figure out where the proteins in stool come from. Congrats Rafael Valdes-Mas, Avner Leshem, Danping Zheng! t.co/hKHkS6VGWS
