About

Elena Cambria is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Biological Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA. Her research focuses on the influence of matrix stiffness in the primary tumor microenvironment on tumor cell extravasation, as well as the development of models of lung microvasculature and mechanisms underlying lung fibrosis. Recent articles co-authored by Dr. Cambria explore topics such as drug delivery in breast cancer desmoplasia and the role of cell mechanical memory in cancer metastasis.
