Cancer cells possess different metabolic properties from healthy cells, and these differences drive many of the mechanisms—such as proliferation, tumor development, and metastasis—that make cancer so dangerous.

In this webinar brought to you by The Scientist, Elena Piskounova and Christina Towers will discuss what we know about cancer cell metabolic properties and what these alterations mean for therapeutic development and efficacy.

Topics to be covered

Metabolic adaptations underlying metastasis
Targeting autophagy in cancer

Elena Piskounova, PhD
Assistant Professor of Cell Biology in Dermatology
Department of Dermatology
Sandra and Edward Meyer Cancer Center
Weill Cornell Medicine - Cornell University

Christina Towers, PhD
Assistant Professor
