Thank you Lynne Lynne Elmore for coming to my talk today AACR #AACR24 and supporting our research via ACS Research. The alarms echoed as wake-up calls 🤣🤠for us to clear all #CTCs (clusters) and #cancer #stem cells in risk of #Metastasis .

Thanks Bailee Sliker, Ph.D. Loved the session w Mikala Egeblad Aguirre-Ghiso Lab on dormancy, a dynamic phenomenon of #CTC clusters with stemness & altered glycosylation (real fire alarm😍) in patients with #breastcancer .

The Department of Pharmacology Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine has survived my leadership as Chair for 10 years! Thanks everyone for putting up with me. I need a nap.

Congratulations Al, what a spectacular milestone🎉🎉🍾🍾

Thank you A Weaver Lab so much for inviting me over. I look forward to visiting Vanderbilt University and meeting with the amazing faculty and trainees there in 10 days.

We are sorry to share the news that Dr. Connie Eaves has passed away. Dr. Eaves was a leader & trailblazer in the #stemcell & #cancer fields, & her impact has been felt around the world. To her family, colleagues, friends, & the people she mentored, we extend our condolences.

Congratulations, Mikala. Well deserved!

Thank you Kay. Proud to be part of the growing family

Happy New Year, Rokana! Your contribution is fundamental and has helped us build the strong evidence of the vascular CTC clusters in tissue sections without worrying about blood processing effects. Look forward to welcoming you back to Northwestern 2025 Pathology fellowship!

Congratulations to Alana Welm for receiving the AACR Outstanding Invesigator Award for Breast Cancer Research, supported by The Breast Cancer Research Foundation at SABCS TODAY!
