We are very happy to welcome Yifei Zhang, as a new lab member to the Cytoskeleton and Metastasis Team.
Yifei will be studying transcriptional and cytoskeletal dynamics in invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC).

Early stages of #metastasis are poorly understood despite causing 90% of cancer deaths. A new project led by Prof Darryl Overby and Prof @vickysanzmoreno.bsky.social is looking to develop tools to study #cancer spread in unprecedented detail while reducing the need for animals in research.🐁👇
Heads up! Small change to Friday’s workshop: Dr. Sebastian Carotta can’t make it, but we’re thrilled to have Dr. Victoria Sanz-Moreno (ICR) stepping in to talk about “Biomechanical hallmarks & vulnerabilities of metastatic & therapy resistant cancer cells” See you there! @vickysanzmoreno.bsky.social
Summary: Amoeboid cancer cells exploit actomyosin contractility, metabolic adaptability and immune evasion to drive metastasis, representing a distinct and therapeutically targetable state within the ...
Congratulations to our 2025 Development Fund awardees! 🎉
From new detection tools to targeted nanotech therapies, these seed funded projects explore bold ideas to improve cancer diagnosis & treatment.
