Awesome job Matt Madden !!! Double awards in one week! #immunometabolism Best part of being a faculty member is working with super talented students like Matt. Onward and upward. #DoubleDoc #MedTwitter #R^2

Kimryn Rathmell and I are looking for a lab manager to help coordinate the R^2 labs--it's a great opportunity to work on tumor immunity and immune metabolism with a diverse and fun group. vanderbilt.taleo.net/careersection/…

We're well into #SuicidePreventionMonth, and I want to share this blog from Director, National Institute of Mental Health. My father would have turned 79 this week, but he died as a result of suicide nearly 20 years ago. Let's treat mental health like the health factor it is. #988

Our paper is live! We studied iron metabolism in T cells in lupus and found that blocking their excess iron uptake can rescue their dysfunctional phenotypes (metabolism, mitochondria, IL-2 production, etc.) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

So excited to see this in print. Aguirre de Cubas, Aguirre de Cubas is an assistant professor at MUSC Microbiology and Immunology (M&I) who really pioneers this space. And kudos to @VUMC_Cancer PhD student @MelissaMWolf1 for putting the story together. #TumorAntigens #TransposableElements #InDels 🙌🙌🙌⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excited to share our latest publication in @PNAS with Kimryn Rathmell where we demonstrate that mutation or inhibition of the tumor suppressor SETD2 promotes the formation of a whole host of chromsosomal aberrations including isochromosomes pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵

My first author publication out, alongside Xiaopeng is now out at Cancer Discovery! Read below for a short summary:

Just over midway through an inspiring and informative #IKCSNA23 meeting. Kudos to the organizers and Kidney Cancer - research, discovery, outcomes, mentorship, community building - the future is bright for #RCC

Great hearing Katie Coleman share her inspiring story with metastatic #RCC and patient advocacy efforts to promote real progress in research at #IKCSNA23 !🧡🧡

The last IKCSNA was my first conference as a patient. I nervously sat at the back of the room not wanting to intrude and unsure how I’d be received. That only made standing at the front of the room to introduce COA - Chromophobe and Oncocytic Tumor Alliance even more meaningful this year. As I make my way back

I can’t put into words how exceptionally lucky I feel to have been mentored by Kimryn Rathmell for my PhD studies these last 5 years. Thank you for your leadership, kindness, and unwavering support. We’re all in better hands now.

I’m proud to have studied #KidneyCancer in my career. A recent discovery (with Frank Mason Vanderbilt University Medical Center) shows a new way to think about genomic instability in cancer, due to mutation in SETD2. #KidneyCancerAwarenessMonth go.nih.gov/AXyMSh3

Very happy that Melissa M Wolf's paper on how loss of VHL in kidney cancer cells reshapes the tumor immune microenvironment to recruit suppressive macrophages & point to a new immunotherapy target in RCC is out in Journal of Clinical Investigation @VUMC_Cancer @VUMC_VCI jci.org/articles/view/…

Additional evidence that tumor genetics can reprogram #RCC tumor microenvironment. Great work by Melissa M Wolf thrilled to be part of this team, don’t forget the macrophages!

It's out!
