Proud to see MCC member Fleur Ferguson, PhD, named a 2026 Pershing Square Sohn Cancer Prize recipient, one of 13 nationwide.

Her work advances a new class of “activity-dependent” degrader therapies to target cancer-driving proteins while sparing healthy ones, unlocking new therapeutic possibilities.

Great example of innovation driving impact at Moores. Congrats!

So proud of my first Master’s student Alice Yang who just defended her thesis! Watching you grow both academically and professionally has been such a rewarding experience.

Excited to see where your next chapter takes you!

With science funding getting struck down, we’re taking our shot where we can—on the bowling lanes! A much needed break for the Antal Lab. Hoping for more spares in funding next year! #FundScience @UCSDPharm @UCSDBMS
