@Aiims1742 😂

I like this version of my name. With three talks over seven days, I feel like I am "barn" storming across Europe.

Thank you, UTSW and Department of Surgery to sponsor this event and thank you all the Speakers, Moderators, Attendees to celebrating our recent paper on @NatureMedicine nature.com/articles/s4159… and to brainstorming on how to target macrovascular infiltration.

Yesterday we were honored to have our very own Ligorio Lab host a groundbreaking symposium discussing the role of macrovascular infiltration in cancer progression. 🔬 Read more about this cutting-edge research in the “Nature Medicine” publication here: nature.com/articles/s4159…

Challenging long-held beliefs about cancer’s deadliest mechanisms, new research from Matteo Ligorio, M.D., Ph.D. (@LabLigorio), and Kelly Newcomer, M.D., reveals the vascular system’s critical role in life’s final stages. Discover more: bit.ly/43dA0HO

Congratulations Matteo @LabLigorio & @UTSW_Surgery @utswcancer collaborators for this @Nature Medicine 📝 describing the end-of-life CTCs & vascular invasion dynamics in cancer patients. Tremendous work to elucidate the cause of cancer-related death .nature.com/articles/s4159…

In a study published in @NatureMedicine and led by @LabLigorio & @kelleynewcomer, #UTSW researchers found that cancer deaths may be driven by tumor invasion into major blood vessels rather than metastasis, paving the way for life-extending interventions. bit.ly/4hf6kjx

@PatricioPolanc0 Thank you, Patricio, for your help and insight in developing that amazing program! Without that program, the hard work of many people and the generosity of patients and families, these fantastic discoveries would not have been possible. More to come!

I confess that when you asked for help to develop a rapid autopsy protocol, I thought it was a crazy idea. But as Steve Jobs once said: "The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do" Congrats for the grit & resilience @LabLigorio !

What really causes death in cancer? 🧐 Dr. Matteo Ligorio’s Nature Medicine study finds that tumors invading major blood vessels may lead to deadly clots and organ failure, opening new paths for earlier detection and intervention.

Intriguing data from friends @utswcancer and beyond. 👏Congrats @LabLigorio, @herbert_zeh, and team! What do the #PDAC, #GIOnc, and #RadOnc communities think — could targeting macrovascular infiltration change outcomes for patients? @Aiims1742 @ShaalanBeg nature.com/articles/s4159…

Reminder Tmr (Friday) at 2 PM, the Pancreatic Ca Program @utswcancer will have our monthly meeting. Matteo Ligorio @LabLigorio is presenting. We will be in NB8.118 and on Zoom. come by or contact me for the link if you want to attend. it will be on tumor architecture in PDA

Congratulations to @LabLigorio on receiving this rare grant from @theNCI for his research on biological mechanisms of pancreatic tumor progression. bit.ly/3aNI5rY

..so honored to have received this award from NIH and to be part of this outstanding UTSW community!! Let’s cure pancreatic cancer, together! @LabLigorio @UTSW_Surgery @utswcancer

@UTSWNews @theNCI @utswcancer So honored to be part of this scientific community @NIH @UTSW_Surgery @utswcancer

Awarded for his research on the biological mechanisms of pancreatic tumor progression, @LabLigorio has been given the MERIT award by @theNCI. Dr. Ligorio joined our @utswcancer team in 2020 and has been a leader in both cancer surgery and research. More at bit.ly/37r2FMK

@whoishegotyou Well deserved, well Deserved, my friend. Ad Maiora..

@LabLigorio Thank you, friend!!!

Congrats!!
