A huge congratulations to the #GWIBSFamily PhD students who earned awards at our 2025 SMHS Research Showcase last week, and a big thank-you to our faculty judges who made the tough decisions! @KevinANestler@ShathaSalameh_@C_M3lo_97 https://t.co/1IXDRb1zA1
"It is critically important that we raise our voices in support of innovative cancer science and medicine." @AACRPres Patricia M. LoRusso, DO, PhD (hc), FAACR, calls on the #AACR25 delegates to stand together and call on Congress to make cancer research a national priority.
Fantastic science at #AACR25 today! So inspiring to see @CancerGrand Challenges like extrachromosomal DNAs #ecDNAs 🧬⭕ (team eDyNAmiC!) and transposable elements 🦘🧬 (key for the Dark Proteome!) highlighted in the 🎓educational sessions. Really cool science being discussed 🔬!
Looking forward to #AACR25! If you want to learn more about transposable elements in cancer, our educational session is at 10 am on Saturday 4/26! @AACR@bengrbm
OCRA is proud to announce the first 3 recipients of the $6 million we’ve awarded to support groundbreaking ovarian & related gyn cancer research in 2025 https://t.co/C543TcxXvV. And we’re not stopping there—stay tuned as we continue to expand our investment in research this year.
Thrilled to share our @um_svilab work published today in @jclinicalinvest focused on harnessing viral mimicry to activate immunotherapy for #GBM. Thanks to all of my @SylvesterCancer@UMneurosurgery colleagues for their invaluable contributions!

Grateful for the funding to explore high risk projects for novel cancer immunotherapies!! You can hear a bit about the work we and the other amazing Scholars do in this video.
Gilead’s Research Scholars Program supports investigators around the world as they help transform scientific understanding, address knowledge gaps and drive medical breakthroughs. Watch the video to hear from three scholars working to advance cancer care: https://t.co/Nilzaxcs8d
Gilead Research Scholars Program funds impactful research. So important to have this funding for young investigators, particularly at this time where funding is so challenging.
