Cancer evolution is a multifaceted process leading to dysregulation of cellular expansion and differentiation through somatic mutations and epigenetic dysfunction. Clonal expansion and evolution is driven by cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic selective pressures, which can be captured with increasing resolution by single-cell and bulk DNA sequencing. Despite the extensive genomic alterations revealed in profiling studies, there remain limited experimental systems to model and perturb evolutionary processes.

Article Synopsis
  • Citizen science allows non-scientists to contribute to research, particularly in addressing issues relevant to their communities, typically designed by experienced scientists.
  • Challenges arise when citizens try to design their own research due to limited training and access to necessary tools, which can lead to overlooked community experiences in health research.
  • This approach engages participants from Grade 5 to adults in studying diet and disease using the genetics of Drosophila, empowering them to lead research projects and incorporate community relevance into the findings.

Objectives: Ovarian torsion (OT), although rare, can be described as a complete or partial twist of the ovary with impairment of blood flow. Although occurring at any age, it is more common in children and during pregnancy. Presenting symptoms are non-specific but include either persistent or intermittent acute abdominal pain, making early diagnosis difficult.
