With all the exciting comparative oncology papers coming out I think it is time to critically evaluate our assumption of cancer as an evolutionary selective pressure. Would we expect genes such as p53 to not have been selected for if cancer didn't exist? https://t.co/Lrso52i5tA

Cleaning out my grandpa’s house I was comforted to see we shared a similar struggle with undergrad organic chemistry😂

Most exciting to me about finishing the cancer across vertebrates project was opening the door for a myriad of explorations into what drives cross species disease risk. @SteffiKapsetaki leads the latest preprint from @ace_arizona

In a new study, researcher Stefania Kapsetaki and her colleagues explore the relationship of chimerism across an array of multicellular species and the invasiveness of tumors found in these organisms. https://t.co/KS3TTICaxU

Since yesterday was officially my first day I am overdue to share that I am now a postdoc with @AndriyMarusyk at @MoffittResearch! I feel super fortunate to join such a great team and I can’t wait to see what we are able to accomplish together

Arizona’s public schools exist to serve all students who walk through their doors. No matter who you are, who you love, or what you look like, you are welcome in our schools.

@AZSenateGOP It was not a victory for AZ students and schools.

Is he serious? Prioritizing education?

This ruling is a win for Arizona taxpayers. It’s another step in undoing the damage of Prop 208 and making sure we continue to benefit from having the lowest flat income tax rate in the nation. 1/

In a single year’s time, our nation’s children have endured:
-Global Pandemic
-Racial Unrest
-Food Scarcity
-School Closures
-Isolation
-Violent Political Insurrection

Check in on them. Hug them. Tell them you love them. They are not okay.

Me: Eventually, you would get sick of it.
