Excited to be at the #NBPA Leadership Conference at UTSW! Dr. Andrew Zinn highlighted how the discovery of PCSK9’s role in cholesterol regulation relied on studies involving the Black community, showing the critical value of #DiversityInResearch.

Reflecting on the #NBPALeadership symposium, Dr. Extavour's (Cassandra Extavour) powerful reminder to 'see yourself there' was the highlight for me. Grateful to Dr. Frankie Heyward (Frankie D Heyward, Ph.D.) and the organizers who brought that vision to life. #Inspiration

Grateful for the incredible guidance from Dr. Edward Benz Jr., President Emeritus of Dana-Farber, who mentors not because he has to, but because he chooses to. Also thankful for the mentorship from Kent Mouw. #MentorshipMatters #AcademicGrowth #ResearchJourney

Thrilled to share new work led by Jie Yang in the lab published today in nature. We find that Aspirin prevents metastasis by releasing T cells from immune suppression by platelet TXA2. Cambridge University CRUK Cambridge Centre rdcu.be/eci1U

Happy to share this MS thesis work from the stellar Surish Shanmugam, MBChB, MSc, MMedSc with help from multiple other lab members! We investigated the impact of specific DNA repair pathway deficiencies on sensitivity to ADC payloads in bladder cancer. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23…

Interesting work on TGFβ identifies it as a central node in a dysfunctional immune feedback loop in MIS-C, a mechanism that may also drive immune escape in cancer.

Wow! A deep neural network—EpiBERT—learns the chromatin code and could unlock insights into unseen cellular contexts. cell.com/cell-genomics/…

Words of wisdom from Kimryn Rathmell re: supporting #cancerresearch: 1)Learn how to tell a compelling story  2)Engage different communities (avoid the echo chamber)  3)Protect + engage young investigators  4)Double down on innovation + discovery  5)Speak with 1 voice  #AACR25

Interesting study shows that pancreatic cancer harbors a rich supply of cryptic antigens from noncoding regions of the genome, some of which are cancer restricted and immunogenic. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
