AbstractAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia and carries an increased risk of stroke and heart failure. Here we investigated how the immune infiltrate of human epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), which directly overlies the myocardium, contributes to AF. Flow cytometry analysis revealed an enrichment of tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells in patients with AF.

In this interview, Mirjana Efremova (Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria) speaks to Megan Bryant, Journal Development Editor for Colorectal Cancer at the 4th International Cancer Conference at the CRICK Institute about her research into how colorectal cells adapt and change through plasticity. Could you explain how cancer cell plasticity plays a role in the metastasis of colorectal cancer cells & their resistance to therapy?

Could you please provide a brief overview of your career to date? I am a computational biologist by training with a PhD in molecular oncology from the Department of Bioinformatics at the Medical University of Innsbruck. During my PhD I investigated how the immune system shapes the evolution of colorectal cancer. At the time, we used bulk omics data.
