[3MS-01]【J】A new horizon of cancer 3D research

Fri. Dec 5, 2025 11:15 AM - 12:35 PM JST
Fri. Dec 5, 2025 2:15 AM - 3:35 AM UTC
Room 1(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 1F, Main Hall)
Organizer: Koji Okamoto (Teikyo University), Noriko Gotoh (Kanazawa Univeristy)
Heterogeneity and plasticity of cancer are closely associated with refractory nature of cancer such as drug resistance and metastatic potential and understanding these properties is essential for advancing cancer therapy. 3D culture systems, such as organoids and spheroids, have proven to be valuable tools for cancer research, as they can replicate these features of cancer in vitro. This symposium will highlight research utilizing 3D cultures to explore the fundamental nature of clinical cancers.
