Abstract

In a recent issue of Cell, Yang et al. utilize evolvable cellular barcodes to investigate the evolutionary trajectories of murine lung adenocarcinoma. Reconstructing the life histories of these tumors based on cellular barcodes reveals stringent selection and phenotypic differences across subclonal lineages.
