Highlights from "The Making of KOLs": Understanding Germ Layer Origins in Cancer Therapy Response
Episode description
This episode discusses findings from a recent systematic review preprint, examining how the embryonic germ layer origin of various cancers may relate to differences in therapy response. Drawing on evidence from clinical trials and mechanistic studies, we explore patterns observed among mesoderm-, endoderm-, and ectoderm-derived tumors.
The conversation highlights how integrating developmental biology concepts into oncology may help inform treatment decisions and research design. This episode is intended for students, researchers, and clinicians interested in cancer biology, translational research, and personalized medicine.
