Our latest work is out in @CellRepMed, where we explore malignant cell MHC class II expression as a marker of productive anti-tumor immune response following checkpoint blockade. I enjoyed contributing to this story!

1. When you write something intended to be read by an important person, go through it and cut every unnecessary word.

2. The reader of anything you publish is an important person.

Had a fantastic time learning from the brightest minds in systems immunology at #cshlsysimm last month with @cshlmeetings. Grateful to @WashUGenetics for supporting my travel!

Thank you, Mike, for sharing this announcement about Susan’s election to the National Academy of Sciences. She is an outstanding scientist, a valued colleague, and an asset to our exceptional Genetics department here at WashU. I am lucky to have her as my office and lab neighbor, she makes the department an even better place. Congratulations Susan! @WashUGenetics #genetics

Highly speculative post: Autoimmune diseases have benefitted from a repurposing of modalities from blood malignancies. Imo, once we find the immune cell subpopulations driving age-related diseases, we'll see repurposing from autoimmune -> aging

And, perhaps the hardest of it all, the Courage to stare Nature in its face, unyielding and impersonal as it is, armed only with rudimentary tools.

It is this unyielding, cruel quality of Nature that taught me the most important lesson of all: Humility.

My ~6-year-old cousin to everyone at our Thanksgiving: "Reilly is gonna be a doctor one day but right now his patients are mice!"
Incredible.

It was a tremendous honor to receive the inaugural Gary D. Stormo Fellowship, & to share the stage with these leaders in genetics & computational biology. Thank you to @gdstormo, @ScientistAtLarj for his excellent talk, @gzhao11 for organizing this event, @twang5 & @WashUGenetics

[Sid Puram, MD PhD (Puram Lab) @SidPuram]

Phenomenal day with Dr Mark Varvares from @MassEyeAndEar, our 2024 Gershon Spector visiting lecturer! Incredible insights about #leadership and #headandneck #cancer, followed by his keynote at our first ever h&n #survivorship symposium. @WUSTL_ENT @WashUHNTC. He inspired us all!

This was a fun deep dive on hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal cell states in #cancer. We've learned a lot, but there's still so much more to discover... More exciting #EMT-related findings to come!

[Oncogene Journal @oncogenejournal]

A comprehensive review on the epigenetic regulation of hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal cell states in #cancer from @SidPuram & @ReillyAlexS! Learn about the various epigenetic factors that drive E/M plasticity and future strategies to target them.
