Project: Starvation of cancer cells has been shown to promote chemokine secretion. The candidate will employ cellular and molecular biology techniques to investigate intracellular signaling pathways activated in response to nutrient deprivation, and the role of these pathways in death of cancer cells and cell-cell communication upon starvation.
As part of our MSCA-ESR training on complementary skills we got to leave the wet lab to explore what happens on the other side of the bench and to learn what it means to be a scientific editor. This is our story.
The new work developed in the lab of META-CAN’s coordinator, Cristina Muñoz-Pinedo, has finally seen the light in a paper at PNAS. The study has been possible thanks to an amazing group of researchers and the funding of two MSCA Actions: TRAINERS (GA 675448) and META-CAN (GA 766214).
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 766214.
