Studies in single cell transcriptomics have significantly expanded our understanding of
tumor biology, including recent analyses in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Here,
we focus on the role of a partial epithelial-to-mesenchymal (EMT) program in these tumors,
with discussion of its dynamics, regulation, and implications for diagnostic and therapeutic
approaches.
