🎉 Exciting news! The #PATHOS clinical trial has reached its monumental recruitment target of 1,269 participants, becoming one of the largest Head and Neck Cancer trials internationally! 🌍🔬 @livHeadandNeck @VelindreCC @TerryMJones4 @CR_UK @RTTQA_UK @ResearchWales @UKCTUNetwor

A fantastic talk, as usual, was given by Dr.Hunter about cellular senescence! At the end we were also invited to the #IAOO2025 congress which will be held in Liverpool! #IAOP2024 @iaopcancun2024

The IAOP Council Meeting has been held. A warm welcome to our new members and heartfelt thanks to those who've completed their terms! Today, we discussed how to best serve our members and achieve our goals. #IAOP #Oralpath

Paper alert! Patient-derived CAFs remodel the tumouroid matrix in a heterogenous manner. When CAFs and cancer cells mix, heterogeneity is lost, matrix softening and an invasive phenotype are observed. #tumoroid #CAFs @iScience_CP @emadmoeen @AuxtineMicalet cell.com/iscience/fullt…

New paper out today: Fibroblasts from HPV-negative oropharynx squamous cell carcinomas stimulate the release of osteopontin from cancer cells via the release of IL-6 frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
