The CANCEROIDS team completed the first SVT on the FLUMIAS Science Reference Model at the DLR User Center for Space Experiments (MUSC) in Cologne.

Both José's contribution "Gravity Sensing in 3D: Cytoskeletal Gene Regulation in Breast Cancer Spheroids“ and Shashank's contribution ”Beyond the Pulse: Gravitational Responses in an Artificial Circulatory System" were selected by the International Society for Gravitational Physiology for presentation at this year's annual meeting in Cologne (25.-29.05.2026).

José Luis Cortés Sánchez presented parts of our cancer research at the 37th German Cancer Congress (Deutscher Krebskongress) in Berlin: Molecular Changes of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cell Lines in Simulated Microgravity Platforms

Today, Airbus visited MTRM to discuss the planned experiment sequence on board the ISS with the CANCEROIDS team.

What makes cancer research in microgravity so interesting? MDR aktuell visited the MTRM and took a look at our everyday work in the lab.
