    Collaborating Across Borders

    Cross-border collaboration is crucial in cancer research because it fosters knowledge-sharing, accelerates innovation, and maximises the impact of research by leveraging diverse expertise and resources. However, it also comes with many challenges. In this episode of The Cancer Researcher Podcast we're joined by four renowned experts — the Director of EMBO, the Director of Research and Partnerships at Cancer Research UK, the Past President of the European Academy of Cancer Sciences, and the Past President of the EACR. The guests discuss the complexities and benefits of cross-border collaboration in cancer research, emphasising the need for careful planning and understanding diverse funding models. They also explore the balance between discovery science and translational research, the importance of investigator-initiated and pragmatic clinical trials, and how such approaches can drive innovation and reduce healthcare costs. 🔗 Access transcripts for all our episodes at magazine.eacr.org/podcast. 🔗  Celis, J. and Ringborg, U.

    Research focus: the impact of chronic stress on tumour progression

    A cancer diagnosis is understandably stressful for a patient. But how does chronic stress influence cancer progression and metastasis? In this episode, Dr. Xue-Yan He discusses her recent research on the impact of stress on the tumour microenvironment, with a focus on the altered balance between neutrophils and lymphocytes and its role in promoting tumour spread. This study, published in Cancer Cell (Volume 42, Pages 474–486), was selected for the EACR Highlights in Cancer Research, showcasing its significance to the field. 🔗 Read the Cancer Cell article: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ccell.2024.01.013 🔗 Explore the EACR Highlights: https://magazine.eacr.org/highlights-in-cancer-research-june-2024/3/ 🔗 Access transcripts for all our episodes at magazine.eacr.org/podcast. Tune in for an in-depth discussion on the interplay between stress and cancer biology, and its implications for understanding tumour progression.

    Research focus: a novel pan-lysyl oxidase inhibitor for improving the treatment of pancreatic cancer

    Dr. Jessica Chitty and Dr. Thomas Cox generated and validated a novel selective and irreversible pan-lysyl oxidase inhibitor: PXS-5505. Their experiments in a series of pre-clinical models show that by acting on the tumour microenvironment, this small molecule drug has the ability to significantly enhance chemotherapy efficacy. Listen to this episode to find out direct from the authors about the effects that PXS-5505 in combination with gemcetabine has on tumour morphology, behaviour and subject survival in pancreatic cancer. This study has been published in Nature Cancer and was included in the EACR's Highlights in Cancer Research, a summary of the most interesting and impactful recent papers in cancer research.
