On #WorldLungCancerDay, we focus on BSF-supported U.S.–Israel research tackling one of cancer’s toughest challenges: persister cells.

Dr. Yaara Oren @TelAvivUni & Dr. Gad Getz @broadinstitute are uncovering how these elusive cells survive therapy - and how we might stop them.

1/ 🧵Check out our new study in @NatureGenet, which examines how precancerous conditions (MGUS/SMM) evolve into Multiple Myeloma, and offers new computational methods to predict progression risk and model cancer evolution.

Spread the word! Registration for the "Mutations in Time and Space" conference is open. The meeting is all about the origins, patterns, and consequences of mutations across cells, individuals, populations, species. Abstract submission deadline: Jan 17th https://t.co/KMEHdXnLMQ...

[Tim Coorens @TimCoorens]

Very happy and excited to announce that I'll be starting my own research group at @emblebi! The group will focus on lineage tracing, somatic evolution and the origins of cancer. Interested in doing a postdoc in the group or know someone who is? Please reach out!

Congrats to @gaddyg and the other 5 amazing #broadies for being named today as Core Institute Members @broadinstitute!! 🎉

[Julian Hess @JulianMHess]

Excited to present at #FOGBoston tomorrow on making @UltimaGenomics turnkey compatible with all existing downstream tools, with a real-world example leveraging methodology developed here in the @getz_lab to infer cancer phylogenies at resolutions not possible without #WGS.

[Michael Vinyard @vinyard_m]

Last month, I defended my PhD thesis and graduated. I am eternally grateful to Luca Pinello, Gaddy Getz, and Brian Liau for their years of mentorship.

“As someone who’s been rowing for a pretty long time, I think it’s really important to have a balance between two things that you find value in.” Learn how computational biologist @lizd0m juggles research and life as an elite rower in a #WhyIScience Q&A: https://t.co/YCCyPiwmXQ

[Liz Martin @lizd0m]

Thank you so much to the @broadinstitute #WhyIScience team for sharing my experiences as both an elite rower and a computational biologist! The balance isn’t always easy, but it’s always been worth it.
