Thanks #miamicommunitynews for the feature on this article! Humbled to work with such an amazing brain tumor team Michael Ivan, MD, MBS, FAANS Macarena de la Fuente UM Neurosurgery Bradley Gampel Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center #btsm Time to get to work! communitynewspapers.com/pinecrest-trib…

Celebrating our first collaborative grant w/ Ashish H. Shah in true Miami fashion: the success chain ⛓️, colada ☕️ and a joint lab meeting w/ Oriana Teran as the presenter 👩🔬👩💻… just the beginning of a long, productive scientific partnership! 💪🧫🧬🔬#glioblastoma #immunotherapy


Super excited about this collaboration and the fact that I got to wear Justin Lathia, PhD 🧠🕺🏽 success chain! UM Neurosurgery Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center Defne Bayik

Thank you Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center and @NINDSnews for their unwavering support for our study investigating the role of HERV-K in the GBM cancer stem-cell niche. Thank you to my colleagues and mentors Avi, John Heiss and Mark Gilbert for their support ! We’re just getting to work!

Thrilled to share our UM SVI LAB work published today in Journal of Clinical Investigation focused on harnessing viral mimicry to activate immunotherapy for #GBM. Thanks to all of my Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center UM Neurosurgery colleagues for their invaluable contributions! jci.org/articles/view/…


🔬 #Glioblastoma is the most common brain tumor in adults, yet treatment progress has stalled for 20 years. Dr. Ashish H. Shah’s new study at Sylvester identifies ZNF638 as a key target to boost immune response and improve #immunotherapy for glioblastoma. 🙌loom.ly/AjQPQZY


Grateful for this dream job to tackle brain tumors using viral/immunotx!
