Frank WinklerGUEST
... uh, the, the mean survival, uh, uh, depending on the subgroup, is between 12 and tw- for 24 months.

Frank WinklerGUEST
And so, um, my, our and my, um, uh, my aim was to really understand this disease in a different way and, and, and using a lot of neuroscience technology.

Frank WinklerGUEST
So, um, chronic cranial window, uh, combined with intravital two-photon microscopy where you can nicely study how- The cancer really progresses in the brain and then combining this with optogenetic methods and all kind of other reporter calcium imaging, et cetera, et cetera.

Frank WinklerGUEST
And we really discovered that these cancers are much more neuronal themselves, um, by hijacking important neurodevelopmental factors to extend neurite-like extensions or like immature neurons, these early processes.
