This milestone, published in Nature Protocols, succeeds in turning a sophisticated bioengineering system into a more accessible resource for laboratories around the world in a clear example of open science. These results stem from a new model of colon cancer research that Dr. Lorenzo developed in his postdoctoral stage at EPFL in Switzerland. In essence, the method combines techniques of bioengineering, tissue culture and light-controlled geneti…
The scientist of the University of Salamanca at the Cancer Research Center (CIC) of Salamanca (CSIC-USAL-FICUS) Francisco Lorenzo-Martín has established a detailed experimental protocol that details for the first time how to generate, step by step, an advanced model of ‘mini-colon’ capable of initiating tumors in vitro. This milestone, published in Nature Protocols, succeeds in turning a sophisticated bioengineering system into a more accessible…
