Hypothesis
Can cancer be understood as a breakdown in the developmental processes of organ maintenance?
Conclusion
The study suggests that cancer arises from a failure in the coordinated maintenance of tissues and organs.

Takeaway
Cancer happens when the cells in our body stop working together properly, like a team that can't agree on what to do.
