Cellular states are coupled to genomic and viral heterogeneity in HPV-related oropharyngeal carcinoma
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) includes a subset of cancers driven by human papillomavirus (HPV). Here we use single-cell RNA-seq to profile both HPV-positive and HPV-negative oropharyngeal tumo...

Partial EMT in head and neck cancer biology: a spectrum instead of a switch
Our understanding of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has slowly evolved from a simple two state, binary model to a multi-step, dynamic continuum of epithelial-to-mesenchymal plasticity, with metasta...
