Summary
Phenotypic change has been identified in multiple settings relating to melanoma progression and metastasis. We have identified a degree of overlap between features of phenotypic plasticity, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and the emergence of treatment resistance. This project will further examine mechanisms underlying these changes, focusing on the role of the epidermal growth factor.
