Excellent Perspective from Jonas (josch1@bsky) Gray Camp Treutlein lab calling for cell atlases to be complimented by HT perturbation experiments — leading to cell 'Phenoscapes'. Static cell atlases are very important, but we still need to do experiments. science.org/doi/full/10.11…

A well-written piece in The New York Times highlighting the importance of funding & continued research in childhood cancer survivorship. Reminder: “…only 4 percent of federal funding of cancer research goes to pediatric oncology.” nytimes.com/2023/10/06/opi…

Thanks to @TriIMDPhD classmate Freddy E Escorcia (@freddyeescorcia elsewhere) for showing me around NIH, his awesome lab, & downtown Bethesda! Great way to cap off a few days of exciting science at the HHMI meeting in Janelia.

Amazing work solving this problem at human telomeres! Near and dear to me as my own PhD focused on this question but alas only in mice

In today's Cell, we propose a “developmental constraint” model whereby cancer cell state plasticity is restricted by the organism’s developmental map to access progenitor-like states and differentiated-like states of adjacent lineages.🧵⬇️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Ayushi Patel

Happy to share our work on hepatoblastoma - using transcriptomics and patient-derived tumoroids to identify embryonic biliary transcription factor SOX4 as a modifier of Wnt activation & proliferation - in final form today @NatComms nature.com/articles/s4146…

We asked the inaugural cohort of Damon Runyon-St. Jude Pediatric Cancer Research Fellows why funding is so critical for childhood cancer research. Here’s what they told us: vimeo.com/1031323497

The secret sauce for starting a new lab is to set up the right kind of culture; one that best enables innovative science with its “enthusiasm, lucid criticism, nonconformism, and friendship” (Francois Jacob)
