As an undergraduate researcher, Yiwei Yan ’25 studied how breast cancer cell growth is regulated in bone by investigating how bone mineral content and tumor-secreted factors influence the growth of mesenchymal stem cells.

Mature adipocytes are critically important to health and disease but poorly understood because they are notoriously difficult to culture. @GarrettBeeghly @CornellBME has developed protocols making it possible! Check out his @STARProtocols paper

Cancer survivors from @BCCRoc heard first hand from our own @ndsempertegui how their funding supports her important work on bone metastasis - she clearly enjoyed the opportunity! Thanks @bobriter for organizing! @CornellBME

Using microfluidic tumor-vasculature models and computational flux balance analysis, endothelial cells were found to induce breast cancer invasion that is facilitated by metabolic reprogramming. @fischbcl17 @FischbachLab @MattLTan aippub.org/3IfV4m6
