As a true visionary, Michael Green's support of the unique cross-campus UMass Biomedical Engineering effort between UMass Amherst and UMass Chan Medical School left an indelible mark on me as a new PI. UMass has lost a titan. What an immense legacy he has left for us to honor.

Our summer lab celebration has become a tradition with the Nandadasa lab TheNandadasaLab! Minus the badminton due to rain this year, but a proper party nonetheless to celebrate fellowships won, manuscripts accepted, exciting stories to come, and the true camaraderie of this group!

Really happy to share our paper Science Translational Medicine, an indomitable team effort with Marcus Ruscetti Lab's group, on combining senescence therapies with nanoparticle delivery of STING/TLR4 agonists in pancreatic cancer. So proud of Lo and Kelly and everyone who has been a part of this team!
