🎉Congratulations to MSK pathologist Dr. Alexander Gitlin for being named a 2026 Pew-Stewart scholar!
Dr. Gitlin will uncover how cell signaling controls the nature and magnitude of inflammation in normal physiology and in disease, focusing on the intersection of inflammatory signaling and cell death pathways.
📢Applications are open for the Pew Latin American Fellows Program.
Early-career researchers from Latin America can:
🔬 Conduct postdoctoral training in the U.S.
🌎 Build labs in Latin America
🤝 Join a global biomedical network
Apply by Aug. 19: https://t.co/lt7e0ZCuj4
Housing affordability 🤝 taxpayer savings
The two go hand-in-hand when states and cities make it easier to build housing near existing jobs, stores, and transit—according to new research from @WorldResources and ECONorthwest. https://t.co/Ba04lzrFzj
For nearly 35 years, Pew’s Latin American Fellows Program has supported a global community of scientists.
Now, we’re expanding through the Partnership Award, a new initiative supporting research collaborations across Latin America. https://t.co/UtBChHjHwR
Congratulations to Pew scholars Sun Hur, Erin Schuman, Karel Svoboda, and Victor Velculescu for their induction into the National Academy of Medicine!
We applaud their hard work and extraordinary contributions to health and science. 👏 #NAM2025#NAMmtg
"We’re still seeing kids who are experiencing higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicidality" than before COVID-19, says @UMmedschool's Dr. Sharon Hoover.
Embedding mental health *and* substance use support in schools can help turn the tide. https://t.co/6nr1EqkU0l
🎉Congrats to our 2025 biomedical scholars and fellows!
These 37 early-career scientists are embarking on innovative research projects in neuroscience, microbiology, cancer research, and more. https://t.co/W5zNjPA0fh
Congratulations to @bjmarlin on being named a 2025 Pew Biomedical Scholar @pewtrusts! Her research dives deep into what is innate, what is learned and what is chosen by biology to be passed down from generation to generation. 🧠 🌟
