By learning more about #obesity's link to #PancreaticCancer, our researchers hope to develop better personalized treatment plans for patients—or help them prevent the disease altogether.

Hello Twitter, gonna try to start using this more. Hopefully a good mix of science and other interests.

$196 million for life-saving cancer research! Pelotonia community you are AMAZING! 🎉💚

Friday nights in December include the Jay Gertz vs K-T Varley Lab Curling Championship! The annual lab tradition is back after #3YearsOff and we have no idea who's gonna win 🤔 Huntsman Cancer Institute A Cristina Rodriguez, Ph.D. Spencer Arnesen Craig Rush Matt Ginley @megsconway Krystle Osby Kate U

Congratulations to the incredible Spencer Arnesen on a very impressive thesis defense today! He presented great work on mutant ER driven gene regulation, including microRNAs (more on that soon). Matt Ginley picked up the diploma toss

The latest Gertz lab preprint is hot off the prepresses(?), biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Dr. Craig Rush developed a new model of endometrial cancer that is responsive to estrogen and progesterone. Let me tell you why this is a big deal…

Excited to share that our recent work regarding the role of microRNAs in ER mutant breast cancer is now out in NAR Cancer! A big thanks to all involved! Jay Gertz Zannel Blanchard, PhD Ryan O'Connell @AlanaWelm academic.oup.com/narcancer/arti…

The second major publication from Zannel's PhD project in the Jay Gertz is now published in Molecular Cancer Research. I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to help out on this work that further defines the effects of mutant Estrogen Receptor in #endometrialcancer

Our work characterizing ER hotspot mutations in endometrial cancer is out in MCR 🥳 The study highlighted allele-specific differences between ER-Y537S and ER-D538G mutations and identified potential therapeutic targets in this disease.

Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer and high levels of estrogen promote its development. Researchers at HCI, led by Zannel Blanchard, PhD and Jay Gertz, have identified potential new treatment options for people with endometrial cancer. bit.ly/47GqKwn

Cis-regulatory control of transcriptional timing and noise in response to estrogen dlvr.it/T5ybf5

Our work on how enhancers impact estrogen transcription timing and noise is now out in Cell Genomics! Thanks to everyone that helped out on this project! cell.com/cell-genomics/… Matt Ginley Xiaoyang Zhang

Estrogen-induced chromatin looping changes identify a subset of functional regulatory elements biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

September is Uterine Cancer Awareness Month. For the next two days the Beacon of Hope will be peach to honor our uterine cancer patients, their loved ones, and our dedicated clinical and research teams working tirelessly to improve outcomes.

Invited to interview with the Biomedical Sciences Training Program at CWRU. and the BioMolecular Graduate Program at MSU!

Invited to interview with the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program at Ohio State in addition to MSU and Case Western!

Proposed cut to funding of the NIH will negatively impact the careers of young scientists like myself and set back advances for patient care x.com/AACR/status/84…
