Elucidating the role of perivascular macrophages in breast cancer development and metastasis
We are invested in understanding the role perivascular macrophages play in solid tumor progression and metastasis. Increasing evidence points towards functional specialization of niche-specific, subtissular macrophage subsets. Elucidating the transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of these macrophage subsets assists in generating a better understanding of the role these macrophages play in modulating the complex tumor milieu.
