Leila Akkari, Professor at the Netherlands Cancer Institute, shared on LinkedIn:
“Enjoying science and sea front at the wonderful EMBO FEBS Spetses Summer School!
Supported by European Association for Cancer Research (EACR), with 80 smart and talented students attending, a beautiful location, a fab set of speakers and amazing organizers Rene H. Medema and Boudewijn Burgering.
And one of my personal highlights of the first couple days, the amazing Samra Turajlić giving us the framework of cancer evolution and a new path to precision medicine 2.0. What a treat! More pics to come”
To which, Samra Turajlić, Director of Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute, added:
“Hear, hear for the one and only EMBO –FEBS Spetses Summer School, brilliantly designed by Rene H. Medema and Boudewijn Burgering!
A huge thank you to all the students for their enthusiasm and curiosity.
The talks by Leila Akkari were truly enlightening. Leila and her team have made amazing strides in understanding the plasticity of macrophages and their roles within the tumor microenvironment, especially in HCC and GBM.
Being here also brought back very special memories of the late Chris Marshall, with whom I shared my first Spetses experience 15 years ago.
Outstanding science, wonderful people, and that unique Spetses spirit.”
