Dr. @nl_alcala is a scientist with @IARC. This is his first NETRF award: "Because each NET subtype carries specific DNA alterations and seems to make the immune system react differently, we believe that the interaction between tumor DNA and immune cells (1/3)

@TheCleversLab and the @CancersRare Team (IARC/WHO) developed the first organoid model for neuroendocrine tumors. During the development of this new model, they already discovered a potential new treatment for pulmonary NETs: hubrecht.eu/nets. @TalyaDayton @nl_alcala

Researchers from IARC and @_Hubrecht have created “mini-tumours” of a rare cancer that affects neuroendocrine cells. They are a powerful #tool to investigate how cancer develops in these cells, and how it may be managed in the clinic. 👉See more: iarc.who.int/news-events/res…
