Proud PI moment - Abbie Jones Clevenger taught her first class @bmentamu as a Grad Lecturer today - she is an empathetic teacher, and a badass researcher who will present her work Physical Science of Cancer GRC in a few weeks! The future of BME is in great hands! 📸: Bailey N, Anirudh M #WomenInSTEM

Congratulations to postdoc Lu Ling Lu Ling on receiving a CIRM postdoctoral fellowship from the Berkeley Stem Cell Center!! Check out Lu's work on brown fat mechanobiology in collab w Andreas Stahl's lab Physical Science of Cancer GRC next week

2023 Physical Science of Cancer GRC is in the books! ⁦@MunsonOEL⁩ 🥂

41 speakers, 9 discussion leaders, 70 power hour attendees, countless outstanding conversations and new connections. Cheers to all! 🥂

We had a great time in Galveston, catching up with old friends & making new ones at the Physical Science of Cancer GRC & the NASA IWS HRP 2023 meetings! We presented the group’s ongoing projects on modeling cancer “-on-a-chip” & our Translational Research Institute for Space Health funded work on human space radiation health.

Great meetings with wonderful science - special thanks to @MunsonOEL & David Odde for the great program at the Physical Science of Cancer GRC

Unforgettable week at #Gordon Conference Physical Science of Cancer GRC! Presenting our work, catching up with colleagues, meeting really interesting scientists, intense scientific exchange & full of new ideas! Thrilled to be elected with Dr Brendan Harley is at @profharley.bsky.social as vice-chair in 2025 and chair in 2027!

Connecting to Galveston history with Samuel Collins III, #Junenteenth #ProfJuneteenth #Galveston2023. Excellent tour, educational and inspirational! With @MunsonOEL @PhunsizeDPhD @PamKreeger @suzanne_ponik Kolade Adebowale, Ph.D. and the Physical Science of Cancer GRC Crew.

Great set of talks, new friends and colleagues, and amazing science Physical Science of Cancer GRC !! Boston University Biomedical Engineering flying out of Galveston with Hadi T. Nia Gabrielle Grifno and Marina Uroz And Erica D. Pratt (who flew out earlier) Looking forward to #PSOC 2025!!

Check out 👀this awesome pic of the attendees at the 2023 Physical Science of Cancer GRC! 💖 it doesn't even look like we were staring directly into the sun. 😜🌞

What a fun community and meeting Physical Science of Cancer GRC - the one cloud giving us enough cloud cover for pictures was the real MVP ⛅️🏖️🌊

One of the most scientifically enriching and socially engaging conferences I've attended in long time!

📢 Call For Papers In this collection, we celebrate articles that describe experimental, theoretical, and simulation studies that investigate the physical and materials properties of cancer and the corresponding cellular responses. aippub.org/446FWQp

Thanks for the highlight CMBE journal - this work went from SD to HD after thought provoking questions over two years at @CMBE and Physical Science of Cancer GRC meetings - led by @bmentamu grad Abbie Jones Clevenger Research@Texas A&M !
