In this issue of Cell, Luca, Steen et al. develop the EcoTyper software to deconvolve tumor-microenvironment interactions from high volume bulk transcriptomics data. They demonstrate its effectiveness in improving predictions for tumor progression and patient prognosis for a variety of tumor types from multiple data sources.
