Important to celebrate trainee victories: excited to have Holly Merta's paper out in Cell Reports. We use TurboID sub-organelle proteomics to map the ER network. We discover calmin/CLMN, an ER-to-actin tether regulating focal adhesions & cell motility. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

it’s been a phenomenal few days Keystone Symposia - full of great science and stimulating conversation, all with a mountainous backdrop I love. I’m honored to have received the meeting’s award for best poster, and lucky to learn from Javier Garcia-Bermudez . now back to the lab!

Thank you to Inderpal Sarkaria, M.D., Chief of Thoracic Surgery, and Curran Eigelberger, M.H.A., Clinical Department Administrator, for presenting at #TopOnTour about how the alignment of thoracic surgery and interventional pulmonology is shaping the future of lung cancer care.

An FDA-designated orphan drug found by #UTSW researchers shows promise in improving radiation treatment efficacy in lung cancer by targeting a metabolic pathway that impairs cancer cells’ ability to repair DNA, according to a new study in Science Advances. bit.ly/44PQw2m

.Ben Sabari and fellow #UTSW researchers uncovered how gene fusions form biomolecular condensates that drive aggressive kidney cancers. Published in Cell, the findings suggest new treatment options and may hold promise for other types of cancer. bit.ly/4jDkmej
