The process how cancer cells can escape lethality after cancer therapy and cause cancer relapse is not well understood. The aim of the project is to drive cancer cells into the fluctuating state after treatment with etoposide, defining the state of the cells before, during fluctuations and in the final outcome, and correlating these states with chromatin organization parameterized by image analysis of phase separation using confocal microscopy and topological data calculations after  SMLM data acquisition.

This project of the Baltic-German University Liaison Office is supported by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) with funds from the Foreign Office of the Federal Republic Germany.

Dieses Projekt des Baltisch-Deutschen Hochschulkontors wird durch den Deutschen Akademischen Austauschdienst (DAAD) aus Mitteln des Auswärtigen Amtes der Bundesrepublik Deutschland gefördert.
