In this project, we first aim at deciphering the emergence of aggressive cellular states resulting from plastic transitions during lung adenocarcinoma progression. Next, we will study how these cellular states are spatially organized in the tumor, and how do they interact with the immune cells surrounding and infiltrating them. Finally, we will develop a ‘digital pathology’ approach aimed at detecting and visualizing the aggressive cellular states from a tumor specimen, providing an augmented view of the disease progression that could inform the personalized clinical management of the patient.
