Excited to share that I have started my post doc in the Judith Agudo lab!! Had my first brainstorming session today and I am super pumped! #newpostdoc

.Debolina Ganguly Brekkenlab et al UTSW Simmons Cancer Center find that metastatic #BreastCancer cells thrive in secondary organs by producing pleiotrophin & activating the NF-κB pathway, leading to increased cytokine production, neutrophil recruitment, and T cell dysfunction. bit.ly/3IRSdB9


Pleiotrophin drives a prometastatic immune niche in #BreastCancer, say Debolina Ganguly Debolina Ganguly, Rolf Brekken Brekkenlab et al UTSW Simmons Cancer Center @UTSWNews: bit.ly/3IRSdB9 @gilbertzmurimwa Fatima Valdes Mora David Gallego Ortega #TumorImmunology #metastasis


A great joint journal club discussing complex issue in #breastcancer #immunology with powerhouse labs @SandraMcAllist4 Judith Agudo Peter van Galen Dr. E Mittendorf. Only screenshot I got...we are deep in thought! Dana-Farber’s Breast Oncology Center Brigham and Women’s Department of Surgery




Had a wonderful time yesterday at UTSW graduation ceremony! It was great meeting Brekkenlab Dr. Deirdre Brekken Sorrell Lab Malladi Lab - UTSW and everyone else! So grateful for the training that I received here UTSWCancerBio UTSW Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences


“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.” Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (Katalin Kariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges. Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her

Best Bday gift ever! Happy bday to me!🤩 collaboration with gut stem cell super expert Omer Yilmaz to find how immunogenic Lgr5 cells can grow into tumors and evade immune surveillance. Team work makes the dream work (and the fun work!) nature.com/articles/s4158…

open access link to our paper. We prove: 1. immune cells can prevent cancer, and 2. Mutated cells must turn immune silent to grow cancer, here with a fetal reprogramming. With gut stem cell expert Omer Yilmaz and me as the immune evasion expert secure-web.cisco.com/1BU72ZRw5WM4am…

With Pravat starting his lab @IISER and Kangsan joining AstraZeneca as Senior scientist, we are looking for aspiring #postdocs to join us. Please reach out if you are interested in studying and developing strategies to prevent #metastasis !! Please RT shorturl.at/isQY6 1/2

So proud of Debolina Ganguly for receiving this prestigious fellowship from Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy to discover how to make breast cancer responsive to immunotherapy. World, get ready, a new super star is rising!

Debolina Ganguly, PhD (Debolina Ganguly), a 2024 Parker Scholar at Dana-Farber, studies how metastatic stem cells promote systemic tolerance to tumor antigens & suppress responses to immunotherapy, advancing understanding of patient response. Hear more about PICI’s support of her work.

#UTSW biochemist Zhijian "James" Chen, Ph.D., wins the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award, sometimes called “America’s Nobel,” for his discovery of the cGAS enzyme, which senses invading pathogens and triggers immune response. bit.ly/3MQjHIr Lasker Foundation


1/ 🚨 Hot off the press in Nature Immunology: CD4⁺ T cells can license Kupffer cells to rescue dysfunctional CD8⁺ T cells in the liver. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is just the proving ground—this is a paradigm shift in tissue immunity. nature.com/articles/s4159… 🧵(1/11) 2/
