CRCI2NA inaugural symposium: A meeting on tumor and immune ecosystems

Abstract

The CRCI2NA inaugural symposium, a meeting on tumor and immune ecosystems, took place in the vibrant and picturesque city of Nantes. The meeting gathered world-renowned experts in cancer biology and immunology. It showcased the most advanced science on mechanisms driving cellular heterogeneity, plasticity, and signaling in normal and cancer cellular ecosystems, which contribute to cancer development, progression, and therapeutic resistance. Recent developments in cancer immunotherapy and anti-tumor strategies were also discussed to collectively assess new therapeutic vulnerabilities to defeat cancer.
