Biomimetic Microfluidic Platforms for the Assessment of Breast Cancer Metastasis
Of around half a million women dying of breast cancer each year, more than 90% die due to metastasis. Models necessary to understand the metastatic process, particularly breast cancer cell extravasation and colonization, are currently limited and urgently needed to develop therapeutic interventions...
