Fibroblasts – from chromatin biology to therapy in autoimmunity and cancer

An interdisciplinary panel of leaders in the fields of computational biology, single cell omics and fibroblast pathobiology in arthritis, fibrosis, and cancer will discuss the latest research into how discoveries about fibroblasts driven by single-cell omics and artificial intelligence are advancing pathobiology, patient stratification and therapies across arthritis, fibrosis and cancer.
