Dolly Parton’s impact is immeasurable.

Her music brought generations together. Her commitment to literacy opened doors for millions of children. Her generosity supported lifesaving research at @VUMCHealth.

[Amrendra Kumar @Amrendra_81]

@DollyParton She brought so much light, music, and unconditional love into a world that desperately needed it. Rest in peace, Dolly—we will always love you❤️🫶🙏💐

My labs latest work on dsRNA sensing mechanisms during viral (poxvirus) infection.

एक 10 महीने की बच्ची Sehrish Fatima जिसे Spinal Muscular Atrophy नाम की गंभीर बीमारी है।

इसके ईलाज के लिए जो इंजेक्शन लगाना है उसकी कीमत सभी छूट के बाद भी 10 करोड़ रुपये है। Impact Guru Foundation इसके लिए Fund Raise कर रहा है।

मैं हाथ जोड़ कर प्रार्थना कर रहा हूँ कि आप भी अपना सहयोग जरूर दें।

आप Impact Guru पर जाकर, Account Number-2223330011812667 पर आप अपना सहयोग दे सकते हैं।

मैं अपनी तरफ से 1 लाख का सहयोग इस बच्ची के इलाज के लिए दे रहा हूँ।

GIVE VINESH SILVER! 🥈

[Jordan Burroughs @alliseeisgold]

Vinesh missed weight this morning by only 100 grams or 0.22 lbs.

Want to know how small that is?

100 grams weighs as much as these household items:

•1 bar of soap
•1 kiwi
•2 eggs
•100 paper clips

Excited to share our work with @avilgelm showing dendritic cell therapy augments anti-tumor immunity with CDK4/6i and immune checkpoint blockade!

I have been very fortunate to work @OSUWexMed and extremely delighted to rejoin @VUMCPathology to continue exciting research!!!

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

Meet the Author: Dr. Amrendra Kumar (@Amrendra_81), a #NewPI and #ECR from @VanderbiltU (formerly @OhioState), is 1st author of “Dendritic cell therapy augments a-tumor immunity triggered by CDK4/6 inhibition & ICB by unleashing systemic CD4 T cell responses,” now in #JITC! 1/7

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

He is most excited about basic and translational immunology. He recently started his own research lab @Vanderbilt focused on the role of innate-like lymphocytes and their role in health and disease. He is happy to be receiving great support from his mentors and leadership. 3/7

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

Outside of research Dr. Kumar likes “to spend time with my family; my wife and our two little boys. I like to read and occasionally love to socialize with friends and their families. Currently our little one keeps all of us busy. And I am loving every moment of my paternity.” 6/7

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

...our findings are “clinically translatable. DC therapies have shown promise and safety in clinical trials but haven’t been clinically effective. Our research might reinvigorate assessment of DC therapies as a combinatorial approach, with CDK4/6i or other immunogenic drugs.” 5/7

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

He’s excited to share his work in #JITC as “The combination therapy we assessed in the current work [CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i), immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) and dendritic cell (DC) therapy] are all either in clinical use and/or development. This is exciting since...” 4/7

[Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer @jitcancer]

Dr. Kumar was inspired to become a researcher after interactions with patients & clinicians, witnessing the enormous challenges and unmet needs in medical research. 2/7

[Amrendra Kumar @Amrendra_81]

Happy and excited to share our recent work!!!Our study finds that DC therapies could improve the responsiveness of CDK4/6i and ICB combination in HR+ breast cancers by promoting CD4 t cell-mediated anti tumor immunity..@jitcancer @smreddymd @avilgelm

Congratulations @BlaiseKimmel and @WilsonLabVU!!

[Immunoengineering Lab @WilsonLabVU]

Congratulations to super-star postdoc and all around awesome person @BlaiseKimmel for being awarded the Distinguished Performance by a Postdoctoral Scholar Award by the @VUEngineering Dept. of Chemical Engineering! Well deserved and we are so fortunate to have you in our group!
