Divergent Resistance Mechanisms to Immunotherapy Explain Responses in Different Skin Cancers

Published in Cancers, 2020

Combining single-cell transcriptome data analysis and stochastic dynamics modeling, we understand the mechanism of different response to immunotherapy between two types of skin cancers – melanoma and basal cell carcinoma (BCC).
