Looking for Postdocs to study the tumor vasculature's role in shaping intratumoral heterogeneity using imaging and spatial transcriptomics. Join us in the Hu Lab in the highly energetic and collaborative Department of Immunology at MDACC, links below:

Machine learning on immune receptors/repertoires is an exponentially expanding field, but labeled data to benchmark ML methods are missing. We address this need with our new simulation framework LIgO. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Led by Maria Chernigovskaya + Milena Pavlović. See 🧵⬇️.

Them: "The MD-PhD pipeline is broken" Who broke it? The expectation these days is that after doing a full MD, PhD, a residency and maybe even a clinical fellowship, you have to do a postdoc and secure funding before being given a "real" job. Most people don't have that privilege.

Thanks for featuring our paper. Open for discussions and collaborations. Kudos to Ethan Fast 's amazing work.

Mind-blowing to think about everyone in this picture knows what bcl-2 and TCR are 😆 #ASH2023 #ASH

Congratulations everyone!

Exciting!

Today we honor Dr. William West, who died by suicide. His family writes, “We hope systemic changes can be made to support aspiring medical professionals better. This is critical. We don’t want any other families to experience tragedies like this.”

It was this, or teaching evaluations.

Published version of the MixTCRpred paper: rdcu.be/dEKRs. Great work by the fantastic GiancarloCroce . Stay tuned - his next story is coming out shortly 😉.

Congrats!
