Cancer development and spread involve complex processes that cannot be modelled for basic or translational science using conventional 2D cultures of tumour cells. Concerted multidisciplinary efforts to improve experimental systems have led to the emergence of novel approaches involving 3D culture formats and bioengineered materials that more accurately reflect the biochemical, spatial and mechanical properties of tumours in their tissue environment.
The conference format is designed to encourage networking in order to develop approaches that translate to outcomes.
Topics to be covered
Cell adhesion, migration and mechanics
Imaging tumour invasion in 3D
3D in vitro systems for drug development and clinical applications
Multicellular interactions and the immune microenvironment
