What is it about?
Discover how an evolutionary leap in our ancient ancestry boosted communication systems, so that the cells in our bodies are better at sorting multiple messages than even the smartest of smartphones. Genetic mutations in cancers cause information flow through these communication networks to be misdirected, suggesting new anti-cancer strategies.
