#ResAssistants are the #pillars of most labs and yet they often don’t get the credit/spotlight they deserve.Our lab would be struggling w/o them!I am SO grateful for their hardwork and team spirit.This year we welcome #Paul and #Alex🥳but say bye😿to ⁦#Judhell⁩ and #Weike💜

Judhell Weike Luo left us yday after 2 years. Yet it was difficult to find photos of her because she was typically working double! Not only research-assisting but also building our, rightfully re-named, #FLuoPanels 2.0. 4ever grateful and proud of you. Good luck on your PhD 💜 ⭐️

🥳Happy to see Eloise Lloyd et al finally published! A beautiful study looking at how distinct #genetics of malignant cells shape #PDACprogression, #TMEcomposition and #TherapyResponse. 👇 aacrjournals.org/cancerres/arti… Also, for future posts see you on 🦋 @giuliabiffi.bsky.social
