Oncotarget, 2017(8), 20667-20678. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.15400

Here, we assembled a broad molecular “tool-kit” to interrogate the role of metabolic heterogeneity in the propagation of cancer stem-like cells (CSCs). First, we subjected MCF7 cells to “metabolic fractionation” by flow cytometry, using fluorescent...

Last 1000 years of environmental history in Southern Bucovina, Romania : a high resolution multi-proxy lacustrine archive. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 473, 26-40. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.01.047

Geo-ecological and landscape change studies at a local scale are scarce in Central-Eastern Europe and particularly in Romania. However, this focus is directly relevant to ecosystems and humans as both are dependent on local environmental changes. W...
