@ucdavis By leveraging publically available patient data, we propose YAP1/hippo signaling and OxPhos related pathways as potentially therapuetics avenues for a subset of sarcoma patients.

@ucdavis Here we present a first in class human sarcoma transformation model capable of generating multiple sarcoma subtypes from the same starting material. Our models reflect key aspects of the disease transcriptionally and genetically.

This means so much to me. The first truly new direction I took as a professor. It began in 2017 when my first student Preston Crowell figured out how to metabolically profile basal and luminal cells. It's grown into the paper I'm most proud of in my career

Fund the NHS and stop wasting time w/ "diplomacy." A longer wait time for initial therapeutics has "devastating impact on their chances of survival."

"Prostate patients were particular affected, with just 40% of patients receiving their first treatment within the target time."
