Tumour cell plasticity and intratumour heterogeneity are key determinants of cancer progression and treatment failure \cite{cordani_2024,seferbekova_2023}. In particular, spatial heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment (hypoxia, acidity, nutrient limitation, immune/stromal organisation, and mechanical constraints) shapes phenotypic states and their transitions \cite{perez-gonzalez_2023}....
