Such an exciting paper! Congratulations @eiwerner, Gisela Otten and all the team!

We are proud to have played a small role in Cassie's remarkable recovery from chemotherapy-resistant CTVT. So glad she is back to her bouncy, happy self!

A wonderfully informative and entertaining podcast on transmissible cancers by the brilliant Kat Arney

@nbierne Michael Metzger @halvorz Harmit S. Malik Andrew Kern @RobLanfear TCG, Cambridge Probably breaking every rule in the Twitter etiquette book by responding to a year old thread BUT we recently had a look at some other pertinent transmissible cancer candidates wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/6-219. Still no clonal transmission! 🐟🐢

(1) Meet Grand Prize winner Dr. Lin Meng (PhD Iowa State University, now Berkeley Lab) & category winners Anete Romanauska (PhD+postdoc Max Perutz Labs Vienna), Adrian Baez-Ortega (PhD Cambridge University, now Wellcome Sanger Institute) and Wenfei Sun (Dr sc ETH Zürich, now Stanford University) eurekalert.org/news-releases/… #PhDlife

Huge congratulations to TCG, Cambridge PhD graduate Adrian Baez-Ortega who is winner of one of the 2021 Science & SciLifeLab Prize prizes for his essay entitled “As cancer grows old”. His essay is published in Science Magazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc….

Interested to use cancer evolutionary genomics and single cell RNAseq to study transmissible cancers in dogs and Tasmanian devils? PhD and postdoc positions available at the Transmissible Cancer Group @tcg_cambridge in Cambridge. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/32669/

We were really happy to have the opportunity to highlight the exciting work of Maurine Hammel and @nbierne published in Molecular Ecology. Such intriguing results about transmissible cancers in mussels!

Thanks Aylwyn Scally for highlighting our post. There will be dogs, devils, scRNAseq, field work, cancer genomes, tumour immunology and more! Closing date 25 February.

It's not too late to apply for PhD and postdoc positions at the Transmissible Cancer Group in Cambridge jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/32669/. Contact Elizabeth Murchison [email protected] for more information. Closing date 25 February!

New Transmissible Cancer Group paper published in Vet Record! Male dogs are four times more likely to develop the rare oronasal form of CTVT than females, due to behaviour and tumour accessibility differences between the sexes. Cambridge Vet School doi.org/10.1002/vetr.1…

Watch this short animation about our latest research: Male dogs are more likely to develop oronasal CTVT than females. Credit goes to the talented @eiwerner – thank you for this wonderful collaboration!🐕 Cambridge Vet School Vet Record

Transmissible cancers spread through populations by the transfer of living cancer cells. Find out how monitoring and conservation efforts for the endangered Tasmanian devil have found new insights into the evolutionary mechanisms of these cancers. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Proud and excited to share our new paper on Tasmanian devil cancer evolution scim.ag/2jP published in Science Magazine. Huge congratulations to @DevilsAdvoMax and thanks to Cambridge University Cambridge Vet School Wellcome Sanger Institute EMBL-EBI University of Tasmania Wellcome Gates Cambridge.
