New preprint! 🧵 We introduce jazzPanda, a method for identifying spatial marker genes in imaging-based spatial transcriptomics (Xenium, CosMx, MERSCOPE). Why do we need another marker gene method? Short answer: existing methods ignore spatial coordinates. 👇

New research: analysis of 45,000 healthy and cancerous mouse fibroblasts. Hedgehog pathway changing cells over time, Wnt9a causing senescence in cancer-associated fibroblasts. Led by Dr @RiustPascual, Prof Jane Visvader and team in @embojournal. 🔗 embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

So happy to share that my latest work as postdoc in the Visvader-Lindeman lab @WEHI_research is out!! Yaaaaay!!✨✨ Check it out to know more about cool mammary fibroblast subpopulations in development and cancer: embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

A fantastic achievement by Professor Jane Visvader who been awarded the prestigious Ruby Payne-Scott Medal by the @Science_Academy! Learn more about Prof Visvader’s dedication to breast cancer research: wehi.edu.au/news/dedicated… See her video 👇

Researchers @ WEHI and @dukenus have uncovered another important role of protein MCL-1: it keeps hair growing! A finding that could pave the way for new treatments for alopecia, hair loss. Read the study in @NatureComms: nature.com/articles/s4146…

@RiustPascual @WEHI_research Thanks for the collaboration, Rosa! All the best for your next chapter!

With tears in my eyes but very excited about the next chapter, today I said goodbye to @WEHI_research!! 🥹 It's been truly amazing 🩷

@DongXueyi 新年快乐！

新年快乐，大吉大利，万事如意，心想事成！#ChineseNewYear
