1) Excited to share a ms entitled: Integrin-activating Yersinia protein Invasin sustains long-term expansion of primary epithelial cells as 2D #organoid sheets. It describes an alternative to #Matrigel biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… A thread:

Exciting new inroads into human biology and therapy development: Human intestinal organoids with an autologous tissue-resident immune compartment! #Gjorevski #Cabon #IHB @Nature @IHB_Research #MOESM4" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4158…

Astonishing breakthrough in #organoid engineering, as reported in @Nature by T Recaldin,M Harter,L Steinacher,B Gjeta, and colleagues: intestinal epithelial organoids incorporating tissue-resident immune cells. @IHB_Research @Roche go.roche.com/4a5t1

We celebrate the holiday...by providing you with an updated comprehensive list of POSTDOC fellowships. For each of the 312 entries, we provide a description to of the fellowship, deadline, $ amount, and eligibility criteria. Good luck! Download it here: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding-op…

On Monday, I had further experimental treatment for my “brain cancer” #glioblastoma. This was delayed because there had been concerns about some of my blood test results. As a consequence, until recently, I hadn’t been exercising. But I am continuing to feel well. Thank you @ProfGLongMIA & other members of @MelanomaAus & the neuro-oncology team for facilitating my treatments. I will be having another MRI brain scan next Thursday 9th May. Hard to believe it’s nearly the one year anniversary since my initial seizure in #Poland & my #glioblastoma was discovered. Thank you to my wonderful wife Katie & my family, friends, colleagues & indeed everyone for all the incredible support I’ve been receiving - I am truly grateful! @MelanomaAus @SydneyLHD @Sydney_Uni

Check out our latest review online today @NatureRevCancer - we synthesize the lymphatic vessel literature in the context of the rapidly evolving field of cancer immunotherapy @Triantafyllia14 #TennyM @Perlmutter_CC @nyugrossman rdcu.be/dEswn

Reposting my offer: 1-1 mentoring by phone on anything science/career related! Have talked to undergrads to tenured faculty and everything in between. Email me to find a time. As always, very happy to chat with people from diverse backgrounds.

At #AACR2024, I will present our scientific findings on the cancer immune function of #IGSF8, a fascinating gene which is like the PDL1 for the innate immune system. Hope to catch up with many colleagues at #AACR! prnewswire.com/news-releases/…

Alright folks, we’ve split our project scientist job ad into two open roles @ArcadiaScience. One for discovery project scientists developing platform tools to more effectively mine the tree of life and the other for scientist entrepreneurs that will run translational pilots for the purpose of startup creation. If either of these sound like you, apply now! Discovery scientist: jobs.lever.co/arcadiascience… Scientist entrepreneur: jobs.lever.co/arcadiascience…

The @US_FDA has granted accelerated approval for our therapy for advanced melanoma. Learn more: ir.iovance.com/news-releases/…

Don’t let others determine your trajectory. I still remember being told early on I would not be able to get through engineering. Glad this wasn’t the case!

Why are women so much more susceptible to autoimmune diseases than men? A new explanation for the discrepancy has emerged go.nature.com/3Uu3kXf

1/11 My good deed for the week. A 🧵 Halfway through my endo list yesterday the DSU nurse came in. “The last patient's arrived with his mother. He’s autistic and says he gets seizures when he is overstimulated.” She handed me his file. “There’s a letter from the neurologist”.

Exciting news from the Schatton and Barthel Labs at @BrighamWomens @harvardmed! Our study on Merkel cell carcinoma growth and PD-1 has been published. Congratulations to Christina Martins, and the entire team. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

subtweet: people with ostensibly successful careers telling undergrads not to do a PhD is gatekeeping. It’s quite hard to predict what your future job needs. Do a doctoral if you can have sustained interest in a topic for 5-6 years.

@CarolynBertozzi @UCBerkeley @UCB_Chemistry @BerkeleyLab Happy Birthday!
