Looking forward to a great day of cancer science at the Koch Institute at MIT and Dana-Farber Bridge Project Symposium today! We will be presenting the work we are doing in the Omer Yilmaz, Andy Chan, David A. Drew groups investigating the role of prostaglandins in CRC metastasis!

One of the most exciting collaborations in translational research right now—Lecia Sequist, MD, MPH and Regina Barzilay fielded enthusiastic questions at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Koch Institute at MIT this morning about their work on Sybil, an #AI model that can predict #lungcancer based on a single CT Chest. #lcsm

Honored to have received the Controlled Release Society's PhD thesis award! This award wouldn't have been possible without the support of my PhD advisors Bob Langer and Dan Anderson MIT ChemE Dept Koch Institute at MIT

Excited to share some of my PhD work was pre-printed! Using single-cell sequencing, we took a deep look at a library of CAR signaling architectures to try to identify signal-intrinsic drivers of CAR-T function🧵👇 Michael Birnbaum Koch Institute at MIT MIT Dept of BE

Always a pleasure spending time with my Ph.D. advisor, Paula Hammond Paula Hammond MIT ChemE Dept Koch Institute at MIT. She delivered the SigmaXiSociety Pariser Global Lectureship for Innovation in Physical Sciences Brown University today! You are truly an inspiration, Paula!

Very happy to share I defended my PhD Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)! My thesis addresses some fundamental questions about how cancer cells tolerate or adapt to genotype-matched kinase inhibitors, and along the way got to advance some new computational methods for mass spec phosphoproteomics. Thanks to my…

Congrats to Riyam Al Msari on winning a Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans!

Al Msari is a grad student in the Irvine and Wittrup Labs working on engineering strategies for localized immune targeting of cancers.

In Nature Reviews Genetics, Sam Gould surveys the Francisco J. Sánchez-Rivera lab's prime editing sensor.

The new tool could help uncover both coding and non-coding genetic determinants of diseases such as cancer at unprecedented scale and resolution.

Receiving the Public Welfare Medal sends 'a clear message that women are essential to America's scientific mission and excellence,' says Nancy Hopkins as she closes her acceptance speech. 'It's a historic statement.' #NASAward #NAS161 youtube.com/watch?v=5hNQt4…

In these intestinal tumor cells, the Sox17 protein is shown red. MIT researchers have found that when tumor cells turn on the Sox17 gene, it helps them evade immune detection, in part by turning off the expression of a protein called Lgr-5, shown in green. mitsha.re/WxNw50QKj0l

Researchers Koch Institute at MIT & MIT IMES led by sangeeta bhatia have discovered that giving drugs at different times of day could significantly affect how they are metabolized in the #liver . Many #genes involved in drug metabolism are under #circadian control.

When cancer patients receive chemotherapy, their dose is calculated via a formula dating to 1916, based on data on just nine patients.

But new Giovanni Traverso Lab tech could help patients get a dose that maximizes impact while minimizing toxic side effects.
