Show abstract
Single-cell whole-genome sequencing of 335 cells from seven colorectal cancers, coupled with Bayesian phylodynamic modeling, revealed tumors often originate decades before diagnosis, remain indolent, and expand rapidly within two years. Strong spatial structuring with minimal interregional mixing was observed, while substitution rates varied widely and were decoupled from growth. Our findings highlight extended evolutionary stasis and sudden expansion, informing strategies for early detection and intervention.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
