The much anticipated release of the latest collection of research and resources from the Human Tumor Atlas Network is now live.

Join us for a webinar in which leaders of HTAN, Li Ding (Washington University St Louis), Ken Lau (Vanderbilt University) and Shannon Hughes (US National Cancer Institute) discuss the latest exciting progress from HTAN. Chaired by Alexia-Ileana Zaromytidou (Chief Editor, Nature Cancer), the discussions will provide insight into HTAN’s collaborations to compile detailed atlases integrating cellular, molecular and histological features across diverse cancer types and stages. After their discussion, the speakers will be joined by HTAN research leader, Michael Snyder (Stanford University) to answer questions.

This webinar will explore:

  • The history of HTAN
  • The goals of assembling cancer atlases
  • Functioning of a successful multi-institution consortium
  • In numbers: HTAN’s scope and scale
  • The power of spatial technologies
  • Applying evolutionary principles in cancer research
  • The importance of understanding the cancer microenvironment
  • How you can use HTAN’s resources for your own research
  • The future of the field

We invite you to hear their insights, ask questions, and contribute to this timely discussion.
