We study the molecular, cellular and tissue mechanisms that contribute to formation of cancer and cancer treatment resistance. We focus on the molecular mechanisms behind the increased ability of cancer cells to tolerate stress, for example when cancer cells to form resistance to drugs. We also query the cancer growth patterns in tissue combining this to molecular information in order to better understand the mechanisms behind cancer cells’ ability to survive in the crossfire of different stress types. In our tissue analysis collaboration projects we search for better ways to image, visualise and quantitatively analyse histology with development of digital pathology, machine learning and AI tools. Our research aims at developing better diagnostic tools and novel cancer treatments.
