Excited to share our latest study in @NatureComms where we uncover a new mechanism of chromatin regulation that is essential in certain SWI/SNF-mutant cancers. Congrats to @HaydenMalone3 and coauthors! #SWISNF #cancer (1/8)

Finally, we show that PHIP inactivation significantly extends survival in vivo using patient-derived orthotopic xenograft models of pediatric #rhabdoidtumors, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic target. #PediatricCancer #ATRT (7/8)

Cuts in NIH research grants will have a lasting negative impact on science and medicine in the U.S. Grants will continue to fund specific research costs, but essential infrastructure like labs, advanced equipment and support staff are crucial for groundbreaking work.
