@AndrewMWaters @KenOliveLab LOL. Not an actual album, I was just responding to the "post a picture of yourself that could be an album cover" meme.

@HCCvPDAC @BatesPhysio Howard is on a tear this morning.

@arosenzweig19 I should say, the exception is in small group settings with close friends/family who are fully vaccinated. Then the kids can go mask free!

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

@arosenzweig19 We continue to have our kids be masked around other people, whether indoors our out. Serious covid infections in kids are extremely rare, but they do happen, so we remain vigilant. Very hopeful about ongoing vaccine trials in young children reading out before school this fall!

In order to promote uptake among certain hesitant populations, I will henceforth refer to the covid vaccines as "Freedom Juice". Now available in Modern flavor, Hi-Pfi, and the new Johnny&Jack!

I am incredibly honored and thankful to be the inaugural recipient of the @AACR and @lustgartenfdn Career Development Award in Pancreatic Cancer Research in honor of Ruth Bader Ginsburg!

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

@DannieEngle @AACR @lustgartenfdn Amazing and totally in character. Well deserved!

Given that mechanism is actively considered by the FDA during consideration for drug approval, it is concerning to me that my data from 17 years ago are certainly never going to be included in that IND package. I am not the only one who is skeptical of their mechanism. 5/

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

But I'm still thrown by this. How are they still pursuing this mechanism? While it's possible that the drug is active for another reason (they do acknowledge some "off-target effects" in publication), the landing page of their website claims the same, clearly false, mechanism. 4/

Still seeking a postdoc for 3-year position in my lab @MarsdenFund: if you're interested in cell fate, cohesins, zebrafish, and living in stunning Dunedin, this could be for you! International enquiries welcome. Please RT! https://t.co/pU8nqS3vBE

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

Thrilled to see the success of the US AZ vaccine trial. I was one of the volunteers & though I ended up on the placebo, I can attest that the trial was run extremely professionally, to the highest medical standards. You can trust this result. Congrats 2 @AstraZeneca & the world!

@deniswirtz @NCIPhySci @theNCI @hopkinskimmel @HopkinsMedicine @letswinpc @PanCAN @lustgartenfdn @PancreaticCanUK @HopkinsEngineer @PSOC_JHU Also, it can sometimes be hard to distinguish pancreatic inflammation/ADM from some areas of well diff PDAC using only high magnification images. Does your AI classifier use info from both high and low magnification in calling areas of tissue?

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

@deniswirtz @NCIPhySci @theNCI @hopkinskimmel @HopkinsMedicine @letswinpc @PanCAN @lustgartenfdn @PancreaticCanUK @HopkinsEngineer @PSOC_JHU Denis, I just read this preprint. This is beautiful work, both aesthetically and technically. I wish this level of analysis were feasible for more labs! I'm curious how automated the CODA workflow is for registration and visualization?

[Allison Rosenzweig @arosenzweig19]

Always great to celebrate important work from @PanCAN grantee @Cosimo_Commisso @SBPdiscovery - exciting findings about macropinocytosis in the stroma as well as #pancreaticcancer cells. Let's starve 'em all!

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

@DJSnM My breath caught in my throat watching this.

[Ken Olive @KennethPOlive]

@HCCvPDAC @LadyOcciput I'm here for you Howard.
