Shout out to my amazing friend and colleague Burdette Lab for receiving the prestigious University Scholar award at UIC!

So proud of my lab! Manead Khin won 1st place in biology, Monica Haughan (no Twitter) won 3rd place in biology, and Didi Zha won the CCTS team science award in the COP Research Day poster competition!

Deadline has been extended to Dec 9th! Share your ideas with us now! Apply to be a STEM workshop leader today for our March 2023 one-day conference (in person) for middle school girls: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Come and join us for a day of science on March 25th at University of Illinois at Chicago!! If you know middle school girls who are interested in STEM, please encourage them to register! The registration link can be found at our website! Link in bio

Congratulations to Tova Bergsten on defending her PHD. So proud!!! 👩🏼‍🔬🧬🧪🧫🎓🎆 Tova Linn Burdette Lab UIC MSTP

Help us spread the word about #STEM! EYHChicago University of Illinois Chicago

Middle school girls at an EYHChicago event at University of Illinois Chicago to learn about #science, #technology & #math (#STEM) careers got to tour our giant inflatable colon named #CECIL, aka Colon Cancer Education in the Community to Improve Learning. bit.ly/3M3WvHC @colorectalcancer

New Publication: "Proteomic Profiling of Fallopian Tube-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Using a Microfluidic Tissue-on-Chip System" @Godwin Lab Burdette Lab mdpi.com/2306-5354/10/4… #Extrcellularvesicles #EV #proteomics #GeoMx #DSP #spatialtranscriptomics

This past weekend's EYH conference had a great turnout! We had 200+ girls registering for 5 tracks of hands-on STEM workshops at UIC east campus. Many thanks for our organization committe, volunteers and UI cancer center for the sponsorship!

Today our important study on air pollutants in the promotion of lung cancer has been published in nature led by Will Hill Emilia Lim Clare Weeden Swanton Lab ...Thread below🧵nature.com/articles/s4158…

Based on a micro-anatomical reference map, we produce fallopian tube organoids that mimic the cilia-mediated transport of oocyte-like beads. Read about it here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Would you like to join this talented group of scientists working on the medicinal chemistry of natural products involved in pain and addiction? Good news, you can!!! We are hiring a postdoc: uic.csod.com/ux/ats/careers… Please re-tweet and help spread the word!

I started my faculty job in 2019, and in 2020 I was diagnosed with cancer. Things look good now, but starting my lab wasn't easy. I wrote an essay about it, in case reading my story can help someone else. Science Careers #AcademicTwitter #ScienceTwitter #cancersucks

Grateful for the opportunity to present my research at #NCIJI2023 . Thank you to all the members of the planning committee National Cancer Institute for organizing such a wonderful conference. Can’t wait for coming back next year!

Thanks for #NCIJI2023 for a wonderful platform to talk about ovarian cancer initiation in the fallopian tube. Congrats on a successful conference building meaningful connections and facilitating career development for junior investigators!

Dr. Amrita Salvi Amrita Salvi crushed her talk at #AACRovc23 from Burdette Lab

Didi Zha and Monica Haughan presented their work in Boston at #AACRovc23. Great work!

Glad to share our recently published review article on #Extracellularvesicles as liquid biopsy #biomarker. This was a great collaborative work! Thanks to all co-authors. Happy New Year! academic.oup.com/clinchem/artic…

The Thomas lab has an NIH-funded Postdoctoral position available immediately. We offer a dynamic research environment with dedicated mentoring to support career development. If interested: research.uic.edu/news-stories/p…
