This project aims to understand the mechanisms behind the detachment of metastatic tumor cells from primary tumors, which can lead to fatal secondary tumors. By integrating engineering, chemistry, and biology, it seeks to uncover the physical pathways that facilitate this process.
The aim of this proposal is to understand when, how and why metastatic tumour cells detach from a tumour.
Often, primary tumours do not kill patients, but secondary tumours do.
These so-called metastatic tumour cells disassociate from a primary tumour and, ultimately, prove fatal.
Currently, we do not understand the fundamentals of the biophysical pathways and mechanisms of the metastasis of cancer, hampering medical intervention. I propose a multidisciplinary approach, combining engineering, ch…
