Projektbeschreibung in beliebiger Länge und Gestaltung sowie mit Bildern möglich.
We propose to use transposon-technologies developed by us to perform genome-wide in vivo screens in different compartments of the mouse pancreas: acinar, ductal, endocrine and progenitor cells. This will (i) uncover molecular networks required for neoplastic transformation of each cell type; and (ii) unravel if and how the cell of origin and its mutational landscape affect molecular, histopathologic and clinical cancer phenotypes.  ...
