Have been wating for this one: Macrophage derived growth factor promotes epithelial proliferation in the lung and tissue repair under inflammatory damage 🔥🔥🔥 huge congratulation to Ruth Franklin Ruslan Medzhitov and the team! 🎉👏🏼🍾science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Proud to share Jose M. Adrover’s (new PI The Francis Crick Institute) paper: As a postdoc (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory/Johns Hopkins Medicine), he found #NETs in necrotic tumors—I shrugged. But he looked closer: NETs block tumor vessel perfusion, causing necrosis, hypoxia, EMT & #Metastasis. nature.com/articles/s4158… @JHU_BDP nature

CSF1R regulates monocyte subset differentiation and intracellular metabolism. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Our new preprint is now online ! Here, we explore links between CSF1R signalling, intracellular metabolism and monocyte differentiation.LP2M CNRS Délégation Côte d'Azur - DR 20 Université Côte d'Azur Inserm

Proud to share our new nature study: We developed the 1st NNMT inhibitor that reprograms cancer-associated fibroblasts, boosting immune response & stopping tumor growth in ovarian cancer models, especially when paired with immunotherapy. Lengyel Lab nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our new humanized both PD-1 and PD-L1 mice are now available at the Jax lab with an RRID. Thank you all for your interest in use of this mouse model to shorten preclinical and clinical space for targeting this pathway. The link for strain details: jax.org/strain/040677

After multiple NIH grants scored in 50s or not discussed in the past few years (very depressing), I’m glad that I finally received fundable scores for two NIH grants in the past two weeks, a MIRA of 34 and an NCI R21 of 6th percentile. 🥳🎉🎊#hardworkpaysoff #KEEP_GOING

Grateful to be celebrating 20 years since my diagnosis with stage 3b HGSOC. womenofteal.blogspot.com/2025/07/gratef…

Would like to clarify that "fundable" score ≠ guaranteed funding because of the obvious reason with 2026 NIH budget. I hope congress saves us from the "apocalypse". Please reach out to your representatives.
