🔥Just published! What are the principles of plasticity in cancer cells? Studying 7 cancer types we propose that developmental constraints restrict transitions to progenitor & differentiated-like states of adjacent lineages. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jDHoL7PXqQdg Cell Ayushi Patel

Check out our latest led by Taylor Heim published today in Science Immunology - we show how T cell exit from infected skin via lymphatic vessels is necessary and sufficient to seed a second layer of resident memory in the draining lymph node science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Welcoming postdoc Tara Muijlwijk 🇳🇱 to the #LundLab!! She will be working on our funded U54 MetNet collaborative project together with Markus Schober, Itai Yanai, iman osman, and Eva Hernando et al investigating early melanoma dissemination Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health NYUGSOM Interdisciplinary Melanoma Program

Congrats to Katie Ventre who received a F30 award from the National Cancer Institute for her work studying the innate barriers to LN metastasis in #melanoma !!

Heim et al. studied the formation of lymph node-resident memory T cells (LN TRMs) following a vaccinia virus skin infection, and found that LN TRMs localized in the draining lymph nodes (dLNs) of infected skin. bit.ly/45Cd3ye  Taylor Heim  Amanda Lund Lab

CRI mourns the loss of Dr. Jeffrey S. Weber, deputy director of NYU Langone Health's Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health. As an accomplished physician scientist, Dr. Weber drove advances in melanoma research, and played an active role in educating patients about the lifesaving power of immunotherapy (1/2).
