Single-cell tumour phylogenetics gains attention
Original: Single-cell tumour phylogenetics
Researchers are highlighting single-cell tumour phylogenetics, an approach that reconstructs the evolutionary history of cancers cell by cell, revealing how tumours diversify and develop resistance to treatment. The technique combines single-cell sequencing with computational phylogenetics, offering a sharper picture of tumour progression than bulk sequencing. Coverage in specialist science media reflects growing interest in evolutionary biology as a lens for understanding and treating cancer.
Why now: Advances in single-cell sequencing are driving scientific discussion about tracing tumour evolution at cellular resolution.
