Happy Channuka, merry Xmas and happy holidays to all our friends and colleagues from the Scherz Shouval Lab! And hey - checkout our fibroblast poem on the back - credit to chatGPT!

Best lab in the world and I’m totally objective 🤭🎉

🔥📢Read the new study led by our very own Editor-in-Chief C. Plass DKFZ and R. Scherz-Shourval Weizmann Institute on the epigenetic reprogramming of #TumorAssociatedMacrophages and their #DNAmethylation landscape 🔓➡️doi.org/10.1002/ijc.34… #breastcancer, #TumorMicroenvironment

Ilanit2023 gave us the opportunity to hike and dance - live my lab 😍

If you’re going to the #AACR23 session “A Road Less Traveled: Where Do CAFs Come from and Where Do They Go?”, be sure to read two recent papers on the topic from session chair, Ruth Shouval, one of our new Senior Editors! bit.ly/3KYT2Jj bit.ly/43BFrih

One in 400 people among the general population – and 1 in 40 Ashkenazi Jews – is born with mutations in the BRCA genes that increase the risk of several cancer types. It's not surprising then that these mutations keep cancer researchers busy. (1/3)

Weizmann Institute MICC cancer research retreat is off to a great start! Keynote lecture by CaldasLab followed by talks from WIS PIs, chalk talks by alllll students and lots of fun beach time 🏖️!

And after all the science (and before some more) - beach & party time 🥳 Love my lab 😍😍😍

Proud to be part of this amazing project 🎉💃

הִנֵּה לֹא יָנוּם וְלֹא יִישָׁן שׁוֹמֵר יִשְׂרָאֵל 🇮🇱 תודה על הזכות לפגוש אתכם, חִזרו בשלום!

Another amazing pre-print from my lab member the amazing Aviad Ben-Shmuel , about the interaction between CAFs and NK cells in the TME 🎉🎉

You don’t need a PhD to know that there is no context in which calling for the genocide of Jews is acceptable.

📢 Hot off the press! CAFs are major regulators of the immune tumor microenvironment. In our new review we dissect a fascinating aspect of this regulation: CAF-induced physical constraints controlling T cell state and localization in solid tumours nature.com/articles/s4156…

Overwhelmed with feelings as 6 students graduated from my lab today (1 MSc, 5 PhDs). It would be more than an understatement to say what a rough year this has been. And COVID before made these journeys particularly hard. Immensely proud of these folks and love you guys!!

Proud and excited to share our new paper 🎉🎉 and especially proud to be part of this amazing team. A new beautiful story on the special behavior of fibroblast in the TME of breast cancer.
