A major goal of cancer biology is to understand the mechanisms driven by somatically acquired mutations. Two distinct methodologies-one analyzing mutation clustering within protein sequences and 3D structures, the other leveraging protein-protein interaction network topology-offer complementary strengths. We present NetFlow3D, a unified, end-to-end 3D structurally-informed protein interaction network propagation framework that maps the multiscale mechanistic effects of mutations.

Background: The oral health of over 90,000 individuals in UK prisons is four times worse than the general population. A recent scoping review on the oral health of prisoners inside the justice system highlighted the lack of research about what happens when they transition out of prison to become community returners.

Objectives: To co-design a film to showcase the dental experiences of community returners before and after they transition out of prison, change perceptions and inform oral health research priorities.
