@BeschlossDC I was in a class at the University of Michigan. One of the Grad students ran in and said the shuttle blew up. The professor was visibly shaken and dismissed class. We were all in shock and glued ourselves to a TV in the Dana Building.

@JoeAlcockMD Joe I’m so sorry to hear this. Sending heartfelt condolences your way. He was an inspiration to so many!

Very excited that Alan Hastings and I have a new paper accepted focused on seasonality and ecology. The journal is still working on the proofs, but you can find the article as a #preprint here: https://t.co/0zXZC3KNM5

Mentoring is: helping someone to make the best decisions for them so that they can achieve their career goals

Mentoring is not: telling someone to make the same decisions you would so that they can achieve your career goals

Finished! I just gave my PhD exit seminar. Thank you to all the friends + family who have helped me get here. I will be in Davis for a bit, but then I will be a postdoc in Vermont with the QuEST grad program. Lots of exciting things happening here! https://t.co/bHwM0pyqlf

.@ReneeBrady_7 of @EnderlingLab and @MoffittPSOC presents a model for predicting resistance to androgen deprivation therapy in prostate ca that uses just 2 patient specific parameters and demonstrates 90.2% predictive power! #CSBCPSONJI2018

@KatStankova @theheikman @mathonco I would love to come to Maastricht to follow up your outstanding Lorenz Center workshop! It would be great if we could coordinate with @Sciurusniger to discuss evolving cancer hallmarks

[Sandy Anderson @ara_anderson]

Today is the final research presentations for our @dartmouth students! A huge thanks to @theheikman and Dorothy Wallace for making this happen! It's been an exciting 8 weeks and I'm looking forward to seeing what all 5 students came up with!

[John Nagy @jdnagy96]

Great visit to @gliomath today. Fabulous #mathonco lab. What a great, productive atmosphere. Thanks Kristin for the invitation to give a talk!

@MoffittPSOC Common view of “evolution” applied to cancer is equivalent to claiming that cave fish are blind because a blind fish swam into a cave

[John Nagy @jdnagy96]

Bob Gatenby @MoffittPSOC speaks on evolutionary oncology #cancerEGT. Genetic analysis of a tumor sample is like genetic analysis of all species of cave fish mixed into a single sample

[John Nagy @jdnagy96]

Proposes a collection of cell- and tissue-specific evolutionary roadblocks that are unlikely to be overcome in the lifetime of a given case
