Our lab's effort is a reflection of Mother Teresa’s quote: “We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not there, the ocean would be missing something.”

[Deepak Nagrath Lab @DNagrathLab]

The @DNagrath Lab is happy to present our first manuscript @NatureMetabolism after moving to Michigan (@UMBME/ @UMRogelCancer/@umichmedicine) . We uncover CAFs' role in regulating PDAC BCAA metabolism. We hope PDAC researchers find this study useful!

@airdlab @mzspectrum @ApoorvaUboveja Congratulations Katherine, nice work!

[Deepak Nagrath Lab @DNagrathLab]

@crismunozp I completely agree. We should often do it and specifically in these times

@schwoerersimon @JuGuillard Congratulations Simon

[Deepak Nagrath Lab @DNagrathLab]

Congratulations nice work

[Sheila Singh Brain Tumour Lab @sheilasinghlab]

The Singh Lab in collab with Moffat Lab uncovered hidden cells, reactive oligodendrocytes, which fuel glioblastoma progression and identified an existing drug that could be repurposed to target them.

@LabDeNicola @Yumi_Kim0201 Congratulations, this is great work. Looking forward to reading it.

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

In the first #ScienceEditorial of 2026, H. Holden Thorp focuses on #AI, discussing how it “will allow the scientific community to do more if it picks the right ways to use it.” He revisits the journals’ policies and approaches related to AI.

Brain tumor metabolism: the sequel just dropped 🎬

Patients get nutrients. GBM crashes the party, hogs the serine & misuses purines.

We built it a digital mirror w/ genetics + isotope tracing. It glimpsed its greed & had an existential crisis.

Come watch tumors face the music!

@JustinLathia @DanWahlMD @sontagfdn Ha ha that’s funny. Thank you Justin. We will try to celebrate

[Deepak Nagrath Lab @DNagrathLab]

@KeshariLab @LyssiotisLab @BaharanMeghdadi @DanWahlMD Thank you

[Baharan Meghdadi @BaharanMeghdadi]

Excited to share that our digital twin framework predicting patient responses to metabolic therapies is now published online @Cell_Metabolism. One step forward to personalizing glioblastoma treatment. Thankful to my advisors @DNagrathLab @DanWahlMD https://t.co/irey5ZZxw4

[Baharan Meghdadi @BaharanMeghdadi]

I’m grateful for working with supportive and collaborative researchers @AndrewScottPhD

[Lyssiotis Lab @LyssiotisLab]

Check out @BaharanMeghdadi awesome tweetorial on her new study! The science is super interesting (metabolism, brain cancer, modeling), beautiful schemes and figures, and all the code is there for the nerds 🤓

Way to go Baharan! @DNagrathLab, @DanWahlMD

[Daniel Wahl @DanWahlMD]

@LyssiotisLab @BaharanMeghdadi @DNagrathLab This was an exciting project to work on. And I think a great example of work that can uniquely done at a place like @umichmedicine where cancer surgeons, metabolism experts, and chemical engineers are pulling together on a big problem like brain cancer.
