Thanks to Chan Zuckerberg Initiative for this opportunity to study #lysosomes and #mitochondria across scales UC San Francisco with Roberto Zoncu UC Berkeley MCB and David Shackelford UCLA ! Measuring Metabolism Across Scales - Research Projects chanzuckerberg.com/science/progra…

I'm so pleased to share our new study out today in Nature Cell Biology where we found that brain resident microglia promote anti-tumor immunity to suppress breast cancer brain metastasis UC Irvine School of Medicine nature.com/articles/s4155…

The adaptive Immunology session is in full swing here at Gladstone. Amazing talks by Maya Arce, Madhura Raghavan, and Julie Zikherman happening now!


The brand new website of the Kersten Lab Sanford Burnham Prebys is now online! 🎉 Check it out here 👇 we are hiring at all levels!! kerstenlab.com




Thanks for the awesome talk Rushika M. Perera. And thanks to Chris Halbrook for hosting UC Irvine. Great to catch up, Rushika

#KSTumorMetab24 - 3 days of great science has come to an end. Thanks to our incredible speakers, session chairs, poster presenters, audience & my amazing co-chairs DeNicola Lab & David Shackelford! 🙌🇨🇦 See you next year!




I’m extremely excited to be part of this amazing program. Can’t wait to get this project off the ground thanks to the generous funding by The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research

Excited to share ‘Leucine Aminopeptidase LyLAP enables lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins’, by phenomenal superstar postdoc Aakriti Jain Aakriti Jain and amazing collaborators Rushika M. Perera, Guido Bommer, Charly Craik and James Olzmann: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


An incredible tour de force in biochemistry and cell biology by superstar Roberto Zoncu lab postdoc Aakriti Jain LyLAP - a new lysosomal protease responsible for degrading integral membrane proteins in highly phagocytic cells like #PDAC cells. 🙌✨ science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


Pancreatic cancer cells “choose” where to spread based on a single protein. UCSF Dept. of Anatomy research shows how PCSK9 helps tumors adapt by reprogramming cholesterol access. tiny.ucsf.edu/mvPrKf

Tour de force pancreas cancer study in @nature by Anirban Maitra (Anirban Maitra) MD Anderson Cancer Center, revealing profound transcriptomic heterogeneity & TME dynamics in metastases. Interesting CAF dynamics associated with cell state changes -- super cool. doi.org/10.1038/s41586…
