Truely hornored to be part of this collaboration! very grateful for the continuous support from the amazing Michelle Monje🎗️ 🟦 Gutmann Laboratory and our wonderful team! Thanks to the hard work from Belgin Yalcin Jared, and James, and all co-authors! We made it 💪

Out in nature today - the research that has been such a huge part of my life over these past few years. Myelin plasticity is a critical component of neural circuit modifications opioids evoke to drive reward learning.

Very happy to announce our latest paper on pediatric/AYA glioma! 🎉See tutorial from fantastic Gustavo Cruzeiro and Ilon Liu below 👇🏻- I’m so very proud of your resilience and dedication! #endbraincancer Dana-Farber Dana-Farber/Boston Children's Boston Children's

Preprint alert! How do brainstem neuromodulatory circuits influence the pathophysiology of H3K27M+ diffuse midline #gliomas #DIPG/#DMG? New #CancerNeuroscience work led by exceptional postdoctoral fellow Richard Drexler biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#CARTcells for #DIPG #DMG clinical trial (1st arm) results are out today. Full Tweetorial coming, but first want to share the story of a patient whose #DIPG has disappeared for over 3 years. It is a milestone and moment of hope on a journey filled with so much grief. “There’s a

Last week we held our Future Leaders' conference, bringing together a key cohort of the #CancerGrandChallenges community: the early career researchers🌟 It was 3⃣ inspiring days of exceptional scientific talks & posters, keynotes, insights from patient advocates & networking.

Thank you so much for all you do Abbie's Army - Fight DIPG Brain Cancer

1/ Delighted to share the published version of this work from brilliant #CancerNeuroscience post-doc Tara Barron detailing GABAergic neuron-to-glioma synapses in #DIPG/#DMG. 🧵 Open access link: nature.com/articles/s4158…

In honor of #RareDiseaseDay and the mom of an amazing kiddo with one, I want to highlight the amazing organization working to improve the lives of people and families with RASopathies (like ours). (Full disclosure, I am lucky enough to be a Board member of this organization too).

This is a well-deserved recognition for an incredible scientist Michelle Monje🎗️ 🟦! 🧠 An outstanding physician and mentor - thank you for everything you do!

Delighted to share our most recent #CancerNeuroscience study, led by brilliant postdoctoral fellows @RDrexler and@ADrinnenberg, exploring the interactions between midbrain cholinergic neurons and diffuse midline glioma #DMG/#DIPG. 1/ cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

More than 2700 3′UTRs are highly conserved. These 3′UTRs are essential components in mRNA templates, as their deletion decreases protein activity without changing protein abundance. Highly conserved 3′UTRs help the folding of proteins with long IDRs. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
