The @VIBTrainConf team will gather some of the leading scientists in #Cancerbiology and #Inflammation at #INCI25 in Bruges in May. It's an ideal setting to present your research, expand your network, and get inspired!

Join our #CCBCancerLecture for an insightful talk by Hellen Ishikawa-Ankerhold on "Intravital microscopy: unlocking insights into tumor metastasis and CAR-T Cell Therapy." 📅 Tuesday January 28th ⌚ 13h 📍 Aula O&N5 #CancerResearch #CAR_Therapy #IntravitalMicroscopy

New research by @vib_ccb shows that #aspartate plays a key role in driving lung #metastasis in #cancer. The study, published in @Nature, reveals how aspartate activates a signaling pathway that boosts cancer cell aggression in the #lung. 🫁 flanders.bio/news/researche…

Scientists @vib_ccb found that aspartate, a biosynthesis metabolite, functions in the lung environment as an extracellular signaling molecule to promote aggressiveness of metastases in mice and patients. ow.ly/Ha0y50UzrBA

🚨 Now in @Nature, @Gysurf, Sarah-Maria Fendt, and colleagues discover a role for aspartate in cancer metastasis. @FWOVlaanderen @komop_tgkanker @Stkstichting @KU_Leuven @vib_ccb vibbio.tech/3PjLfXX

Beyond excited to share that the main work of my PhD on how aspartate signaling drives metastasis is finally out in @Nature ✨ -> go.nature.com/4gCYtuL A huge thank to the @Fendtlab and all our collaborators for the terrific team work 🙏 @KU_Leuven @vib_ccb A brief🧵

Top citations 2024: #4🏆✨ Sarah-Maria Fendt (@vib_ccb) and co-authors discuss the #metabolic #heterogeneity of #cancer in this Review Article 🐭👥 nature.com/articles/s4225…
