Cell dynamics drive disease — humans give only snapshots
Significance
The catch
Cell–cell communication circuits → new therapies.
Human native context is
only available as biopsy

Limitations &amp; caveats
9 caveats from the paper, grouped into 3 categories
A. MODELLING ASSUMPTIONS
?
B. CONFOUNDERS &amp; COVERAGE
C. DATA &amp; VALIDATION GAPS
Dynamics doesn’t change
Patient confounders
Sample-size needs
Drifts if dynamics shift over time.
Stage / genotype / tumour size —
check across subsets.
Per-patient ≥ 0.2 cm². Cohort needs
many patients.
Constant death rate
Spatial confounders
State-space coverage
Death rate ≈ mean division rate, not
by neighbourhood.
Hypoxia / inflammation gradients
within tissue.
Sparse regions in composition = less
reliable.
Migration not modelled
Hidden subtypes
No fine-timescale val.
Subtypes outside the antibody
panel = untestable.
Only 24-week biopsies; need pulsechase / intravital.
→
External influx / fate change need
explicit terms.
