@Zarif_Lab @Morehouse @UNCF @Merck Much appreciated Dr. Zarif!

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

@DattaScientist Thanks Meenal!

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

We are excited that our paper characterizing a new mouse model of hormone receptor positive breast cancer is now published in @AJPathology. Happy to share this line with the breast cancer research community and stem cell biologists.

Thank you for attending #Pathobiology2024! See you in Portland next year!

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

Congratulations to Guillermo on his successful thesis defense! He is the first PhD student in the Jones Lab. Proud mentor!

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

After attending a fantastic Gordon Research Conference on lymphatics last week, I am grateful that this week my lab was officially awarded an exploratory grant from the Department of Defense to study how to repair damaged lymphatic vessels. #lymphedema

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

Another fantastic Lymphatics @GordonConf organized by @BenjaminHogan13 and Hong Chen. Thrilled to watch Guillermo's poster flash talk. It was an honor for me to give an oral presentation and co-lead the power hour with @KarinaYaniv and Hasina Outtz Reed. Excited for 2026!

Happy to see our review published in @trendscancer! It was a fantastic experience collaborating with @theLundLab @katie_ventre @InesDelclaux on this timely review, which focuses on the role of lymph nodes in anti-tumor immunity.

[Katie Ventre @katie_ventre]

Out today in @trendscancer! Writing with @InesDelclaux @theLundLab @DJonesLab on our favorite topics: the tumor-draining lymph node in immune surveillance, why understanding the tdLN is important, and lymph node metastasis as an agent of chaos

Congrats @LeiLei_Pinji @PaderaLab @beyazlab Happy to contribute to this exciting study.

[Journal of Experimental Medicine @JExpMed]

Lei, Pereira, @PaderaLab, @beyazlab et al. reveal that a subpopulation of #BreastCancer cells in the lymph node is marked by MHC-II expression in the absence of costimulatory molecules, which causes the expansion of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells. https://t.co/QNjnryIc20

An incredible past few days! Congratulations to Mervin, Kavya (masters), Anna (undergrad) and Safiyah (post-bac) on finishing your programs. I’m grateful to have been your mentor. I look forward to the amazing things you will accomplish! @BUMedicine

[Katie Campbell @CampKatiee]

An incredible funding opportunity focused on supporting #WomenInSTEM especially at the stage of junior faculty #AACRECR #AACRAMC Share with your fellow female scientists 💪

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

What a memorable #AACR23. Thrilled to give a presentation in a session with @PaderaLab, @theLundLab, reconnect with Steelers @MGHSteeleLabs, and Profs. @IAmDrDex @Zarif_Lab from our UNCF-Merck 2014 postdoc fellowship cohort cohort +more!

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

It was an honor to give the 15th annual Tucker Collins lecture at Harvard Med today. @harvardmed Dr. Collins was an inspirational vascular biologist taken too soon.

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

@DattaScientist Congratulations @DattaScientist !

[Meenal Datta @DattaScientist]

Thrilled to (finally) share this publication! Immune checkpoint blockade exacerbates cerebral edema in patients and mice with glioblastoma. Losartan controls this edema, reprograms the microenvironment, and improves response to immunotherapy. https://t.co/aLN4Sf7INj

[Dennis Jones @DJonesLab]

It was an honor to be an @ASIPath /San Filippo Visiting Lecturer at @UMich Dept. of Pathology. I enjoyed the thought-provoking discussions with the many talented faculty and trainees!

NIH defines underrepresented/disadvantaged populations in science as meeting 1-2 of 9 criteria. Realizing I check 6 of the boxes, it helped put my journey into perspective as I and Dr. Smith told Boston public high school students that they can have a future in STEM. @BUMedicine
