A modified fluctuation-test framework characterizes the population dynamics and mutation rate of colorectal cancer persister cells

Compelling evidence shows that cancer persister cells represent a major limit to the long-term efficacy of targeted therapies. However, the phenotype and population dynamics of cancer persister cells remain unclear. We developed a quantitative framework to study persisters by combining experimental...
