Núria Montserrat, Minister for Research and Universities, visited the CMCiB. The aim of the visit was to gain first-hand insight into the scientific and technological projects carried out in fields such as bioimaging, experimental surgery, and the validation of new medical devices and therapies. Additionally, the visit provided an opportunity to further explore IGTP's impact on translational research and its contribution to health innovation.
A new study has examined the complex personal factors influencing breastfeeding decisions among young breast cancer survivors. The authors emphasise the importance of specialised and personalised professional support for these patients.
A team led by the Cancer Immunogenomics group at IJC, BSC and IGTP shows, for the first time, that within a tumour, the expression of the different hallmarks of cancer is not cell-specific, but rather position-specific. Under this new light, tumour architecture emerges as a valuable source of information to understand tumour dynamics and predict its sensitivity to anticancer drugs.
