Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, and across all #science disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️ So how can we achieve #gender #equality? We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary.. 🧵 cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

I have been an advocate of better transparency in AI reporting for research (ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…) and the broader public (medicine.umich.edu/dept/lhs/news/…). Really appreciated the opportunity to contribute to the new TRIPOD+AI guidelines to address the “how”: bmj.com/content/385/bm…

Humans are absorbing microplastics at an unprecedented rate which is increasing the risk of #cancer ☹️ #health #news

Can we recreate the transcriptional states seen in single-cell atlas projects? In our new preprint we try to do this using large-scale Perturb-seq experiments. Along the way we discuss off-target effects of CRISPR epigenetic editors and identify drivers of key fibroblast states.

Registration is still open for Molecular and Cellular Aging, which is being co-organized by C4E Director Bing Ren. Join us for this series of compelling talks by leaders in the field of molecular and cellular mechanisms of cell senescence and aging. sbpdiscovery.org/calendar/molec…

Excited to share our work in collaboration with Kevin Corbett on detecting protein-RNA interactions with RNA-base editing in situ in fixed cells and primary tissues. Congratulations Lisa Liang and Tao in our lab! Thank you Chan Zuckerberg Initiative for the support! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Tomorrow, Sven-Göran Eriksson’s brilliant and poignant documentary on his life will premier on Amazon Prime Video Sport and within this, he made the incredibly brave decision to use his experience to raise awareness of pancreatic cancer.

‘WE LIVE IN TIME’ hits close to home to Andrew Garfield who lost his mother to pancreatic cancer in 2019. The film allowed him to explore his own grief, and hopes it may help others do the same. (vanityfair.com/hollywood/stor…)

We’ve had a morning of innovation & collaboration at the #MCCAnnualScientificRetreat!🧪 During lunch, the MCC Office of Translational Science hosted a networking lunch on topics ranging from immunotherapy to cancer health disparities—and the view was a plus.🌊☀️

Shout out to Karandeep Singh for helping to decode the future of medicine — one algorithm at a time! 🤖💉 #AIInHealthcare #TechSavvy

Having a great time at the UC San Diego Health Moores Cancer Center Scientific Retreat! Incredible to see how discoveries and collaboration are shaping cancer care's future. Thanks to @GutkindLab for organizing and Karandeep Singh for insights on AI in cancer research. Exciting breakthroughs ahead!

Live music is better when it is played by a band of MCC oncologists. 👏 “Adverse Events” band members Dr. Soo Park, Dr. Greg Daniels, DrTylerStewart, & Dr. Fred Millard take the stage at the #MCCAnnualScientificRetreat. 🎶
