“We can cure primary tumors by surgery or radiation. However, when tumor cells start spreading from one place to another, they can get out of control. A lot of times it is devastating and incurable,” Huiping Liu, MD, PhD (@LiuCluster), said. “It’s a very significant problem in the clinic and also affects patient outcomes and survival time.” news.feinberg.northwestern.e… @NUfeinbergmed #BreastCancer #CirculatingTumorCells #DPCells

We are delighted to celebrate the election of our esteemed colleague, Dr. Joe Bass, @JoeBass91471540 to the @theNAMedicine. This honor recognizes his outstanding contributions to the field of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Molecular Medicine, and his pioneering research elucidating the critical links between the body’s circadian rhythms and metabolic regulation. Dr. Bass’s groundbreaking work has revealed how disruptions in the circadian system contribute to metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity. This election represents a well-deserved and long-overdue recognition of Dr. Bass’s exceptional scientific achievements and his profound impact on the field. Congratulations, Joe, on this remarkable and richly merited honor. @NU_BMG_SQE @NUFeinbergMed @theNASciences

This is intriguing work coming from @LurieCancer, highlighting critical cellular dynamics that could be pivotal in addressing metastasis in #breastcancer. With cancer cells leveraging immune cell interactions for spread, what implications does this have for developing targeted therapies?
