the article is titled "breast cancer cells have to learn to walk before they can run"

This may influence who with DCIS gets radiation therapy--hopefully, with this new "kick in the backside, wakeup call" research, they will study which markers are associated with this type of motility in order to predict which types of DCIS need radiation therapy as well as surgical removal. Wonder what the effect of tamoxifen or AIs on this motility is and if her2 positivity is one of the culprits for these wandering "toddlers"
