Proud to share our work on the immunotherapeutic potential of anti-GD2 antibody Naxitamab in breast cancer, now published in NPJ Breast Cancer. This research led to a DoD-funded clinical trial at MD Anderson and VCU. #BreastCancer ⁦@MDAndersonNews⁩ https://t.co/bEorFXb0rd

New study reveals GD3 synthase (GD3S), a key anti-apoptotic factor in breast cancer. It is upregulated by mutant p53 and overrides p53-induced cell death by enhancing mitochondrial activity. Targeting GD3S may offer new hope. @MDAndersonNews #breastcancer https://t.co/SlSvYX7bB9.

A 1,000,000th reminder the crucial importance of basic research. Ambros and Ruvkun were looking into understanding nematode genetics and development, not looking for a drug, and ended up opening an entire new area in biology

Being rigorous does not have to mean being cruel.

We can have high standards and also be kind in how we communicate them.

We can choose to support people in achieving their best rather than tearing them down when they fall short.

President Biden reignited the Cancer Moonshot – with the goal of cutting the cancer death rate by at least half over the next 25 years and ending cancer as we know it.

2nd year in a row, I’d the honor of guiding an extremely bright summer intern from Augustana College, IL. With no prior exposure they’d learned everything about research in just 10 wks. Hope they keep their enthusiasm for science @zoeee_a9 & Lindsay. Thank you @MDAndersonNews!
