@JulietFrench01 Hours might be generous… it’s more like years 😊. But got there in the end!! Congratulations to all authors. This one was definitely a village effort.

First paper of 2026! We started with 4 genetic variants from GWAS and ended with a potential lncRNA therapeutic for ER+ breast cancer. Spent hours with co-senior author @Edwards_Stace bouncing ideas around, discussing results and potential mechanisms. rdcu.be/eXVnl

@PeteSim10031537 @breast_lab @UQMedicine @UQ_News Congratulations Pete 🥳🥂

Our breast cancer proliferation Cas13d knockdown screen for genetically supported lncRNAs is finally published in Molecular Cancer @BioMedCentral rdcu.be/dIpgT. We show that BC GWAS variants act by reducing the half-life of novel DNA replication and repair lncRNA KILR.

Please RT. @QIMRB_Institute is recruiting a Clinician Researcher/Group Leader in Cancer Cell Therapies. Excellent opportunity to join our existing cell therapies program! @ASH_hematology @EHA_Hematology @OncologyNewsAus @ASImmunology #CARTcell

Congratulations to Professor @stuartmacgreg on being awarded a highly competitive national funding grants for crucial research into #glaucoma risk prediction. The @nhmrc’s Investigator Grants were announced on Thursday...

We are proud to announce 19 new world-class breast cancer research projects receiving a combined investment of $13.5 million to help progress towards our vision of Zero Deaths from breast cancer. nbcf.org.au/news/19-new-wo… #research #researchgrants #researchers

Congratulations to the @GRIDD_GU and Professor Sudha Rao, who are joint recipients of the biennial Ramaciotti Biomedical Research Award in 2023.

Congratulations to Professor Sarah Medland and colleagues from QIMR Berghofer, @uni_sydney, @UQ_News, @QUT and @Griffith_Uni on being awarded two Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) grants, totaling more than $3.7 million. @healthgovau

Very happy to share our work of love and a brain child, stLearn. We show 1) ability to predict progression trajectories of diseases and development across a tissue, and 2) accurate mapping of spatial interactions, overcoming constraints in scRNAseq data nature.com/articles/s4146…

New preprint from our lab! @LuWang51536623 @BitarMaina CRISPR-Cas13d screens identify KILR a breast cancer risk-associated lncRNA that regulates DNA replication and repair. Another great collaboration with @Edwards_Stace ! @lncRNA_papers @GWAS_lit biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to Professor @JulietFrench01 on being appointed QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute's new Cancer Research Program Director.

@lncRNA_papers 👍

LINE-1 regulates cortical development by acting as long non-coding RNAs dlvr.it/StqsW8

Our paper is now published in @NAR_Open Redefining normal breast cell populations using long noncoding RNAs bit.ly/3nFLD97. @BitarMaina @Edwards_Stace. @lncRNA_papers @SingleCellMedia @RNASociety @lncRNABlog

@ProfJohnHooper has received a $100k @tourdecure_aus grant to research a fluorescent contrast agent which will potentially help surgeons better detect & excise ovarian cancers. Join Mater's fight this #OvarianCancerAwarenessMonth to BEAT ovarian cancer: mater.li/ovarian-cancer

@jacki_hf @AlistairChalk @DrNatSampaio @SVIResearch @Hudson_Research Congratulations Jacki!! 🥳

So grateful to have received a #NHMRC Ideas Grant! Excited to continue our work looking at regulators of endogenous dsRNA, A-to-I RNA editing and innate immunity with @AlistairChalk and pumped for new collab with CIB @DrNatSampaio. @SVIResearch @Hudson_Research

A new preprint from our lab @BitarMaina @Edwards_Stace demonstrating that lncRNA expression alone can discriminate mammary cell types. @MammaryCell @lncRNA_papers @ozsinglecells biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@buitengebieden Love it 😍

Kara's research project will uncover the role of immune cells, especially macrophages, in the earliest stages of breast cancer initiation and determine whether targeting these cells can prevent the onset of breast cancer. Read more: url.nbcf.org.au/immune #research #breastcancer
