Patricio Polanco, Surgical Oncologist at UT Southwestern Medical Center, shared a post on X about a paper he co-authored with colleagues, published in Nature Medicine:
“Congratulations, Matteo Ligorio and the UT Southwestern Medical Center, UTSW Simmons Cancer Center, and collaborators for this Nature Medicine describing the end-of-life CTCs and vascular invasion dynamics in cancer patients. Tremendous work to elucidate the cause of cancer-related death.
I confess that when you asked for help to develop a rapid autopsy protocol, I thought it was a crazy idea. But as Steve Jobs once said: ‘The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.’ Congrats for the grit and resilience, Matteo Ligorio.”
