Project

Unraveling and targeting microglia-driven glioma invasion.

The project is aimed at 1) deciphering microglia-derived signals that promote glioma invasion using single cell RNA profiling and spatial transcriptomics on murine and human GBM tissue, 2) evaluate the potential implication of microglia-derived lipids in tumor invasion, and 3) therapeutically exploit these targets to guide a clinical trial for GBM patients at UZ Leuven.
