Meet Steph Borlase, Research Manitoba MSc studentship recipient supported by the Foundation. Thanks to donors: "we are able to complete experiments which will ultimately lead to groundbreaking treatments and therapies, forever changing so many lives." #MoreTomorrowsTogether

Get outside this weekend & enjoy the weather by making some snow angels in support of others! ❄️👼 Alley's Angels started a fundraiser in honour of Alley, their friend, wife, mom, sister, neighbour, & co-worker, who they lost to cancer last February. ❤️ bit.ly/3dCw3mW

Congrats to my 1st year MSc student Steph Borlase on winning a Dean of Graduate Studies poster award at her very first Manitoba Health Research Poster competition U of M Rady Faculty! Good job! 👏🏻 #CSHRF

MSc trainee Steph Borlase is exploring targeted therapies and the effect of MEK inhibitors on Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) #medulloblastoma in preclinical models of #BrainCancer 🧠 Thanks to Research Manitoba and CancerCare Manitoba Foundation for their support Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie #IBTAWeek

Great to see the amazing work of 2020 Master’s Studentship awardee Steph Borlase!!

On #INTERNATIONALDAYOFWOMENINSCIENCE I would like acknowledge some of the amazing #WomenInScience students I have had the privilege to mentor in my lab Grace Courtney Marshall Dina Mostafa Natasha Osawa Steph Borlase & supportive #Ally @anthony_altieri Hemshekhar Mahadevappa, MSc, PhD

Congrats Steph Borlase on your FGS research completion scholarship! 2 first author papers from your MSc and multiple co-authored studies. Can’t wait for everyone to see everything you have accomplished! UofT will be lucky to have you as a new PhD student in the fall! 👏🏻👏🏻

Special shoutout to this year's top 5 student presentations Steph Borlase (Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie Lab), Doris Onuzulu (@notthatdrjones Lab), Rubi Campos Gudino, Nicole Neudorf (McManus Lab) and MacKenzie Wilke (Britt Drogemoller 🇿🇦🇨🇦 Lab)

Happy to share the 1st of 2 studies out this summer and published today in Communications Biology! This work was led by the fabulous Jamie Zagozewski and Steph Borlase! nature.com/articles/s4200…

Excited to share our work examining dual MEK + JAK/STAT3 inhibition in SHH medulloblastoma. So proud to be a part of this incredible team. Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie Steph Borlase

Awesome work coming out of Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie's lab, led by Jamie Zagozewski and Steph Borlase, uncovering MEK and JAK/STAT3 inhibition as a novel combinatory therapeutic strategy for SHH Medulloblastoma!

RNA seq of MEK inhibitor-treated tumors reveals an upregulation of the JAK/STAT3 pathway, with combinatorial therapeutic strategies investigated for the SHH subgroup of medulloblastoma Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie Jamie Zagozewski Steph Borlase U of M Rady Faculty Biochemistry & Medical Genetics UofM nature.com/articles/s4200…

We are back with another exciting academic year ahead - join us in welcoming our 2022-2023 STARS21 at UT Scholars! Stay tuned for our Scholar Spotlights to see what our scholars are up to this year...

Congratulations to Stephanie Borlase Steph Borlase, our recent MSc graduate, for publishing her 1st author paper today CDD press! Her work focused on testing trametinib in several preclinical models of SHH medulloblastoma. Great job, Steph!! nature.com/articles/s4142…

I am thrilled to share our new study in Nature Cell Biology! With Michael Taylor’s team, we uncovered an unexpected role for the transcription factor OTX2 in regulating Group 3 medulloblastoma alternative splicing. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Congrats to Jamie Zagozewski, Paul Layug, Steph Borlase, @DrBradDoble, Tamra Werbowetski-Ogilvie, Lisa Liang, Victor Gordon, Ludivine Coudière-Morrison, et al. on their Nature Cell Biology publication! Great to see so many current/past BMG members contributing to this groundbreaking work!
