#KCRS26 starts TOMORROW! Tomorrow, researchers, clinicians, industry leaders, and advocates from around the world will come together for two days of groundbreaking science and meaningful discussion focused on advancing #KidneyCancer research. We can't wait to see everyone there! #AcceleratingCures

aacr.org/professionals/… Thanks so much for the supports from @AACR @kidneycan !!

@katy_beckermann @AlbigesL @HHammersMD @EJonasch @DrChoueiri @DrRanaMcKay @montypal @MikeSerzanMD @JBrugarolas @tompowles1 Look forward to your presentation, Katy!

Boston-bound for KCRS26. ✈️ Two days that pack the entire kidney cancer field, bench to bedside, into one room. So many brilliant minds in the room: @AlbigesL @HHammersMD @EJonasch @DrChoueiri @DrRanaMcKay @montypal @MikeSerzanMD @QingZhangLab @JBrugarolas @tompowles1 @DrKarieRuncie @YuWeiChenMD @paulosiqamaral @BraunMDPhD @KotechaMD @PavlosMsaouel @TiansterZhang and more that i've missed! On Friday I am giving the ASCO GU highlights, so I have been living in the RCC data. A few things showing up in the program overall: 🎯 HIF-2α inhibitors moving earlier in the disease 🔬 PSMA showing up as a target outside prostate 🤖 AI creeping into the diagnostic workflow KidneyCAN took dedicated federal funding for kidney cancer research from $0 in 2016 to more than $285M, and is still fighting for it on the Hill. 🙏 Full program 📄 bit.ly/kcrs26-program More as the sessions run. If you are here, come find me. 🧬 #KidneyCancer #RCC #GUonc #KCRS26

@kidneycan Looking forward to a great meeting as always!!

The #KCRS26 Abstract Book is now available! Get an early look at the innovative research that will be presented during this year's Kidney Cancer Research Summit. From basic and translational science to clinical research, the Abstract Book offers a preview of the discoveries helping shape the future of #KidneyCancer research. 📖 View the Abstract Book: kcrs.kidneycan.org/kcrs26-abstrac… Then join us virtually on July 23-24 to hear these findings presented and discussed by the researchers behind the work! kcrs.kidneycan.org #AcceleratingCures

Chromosome loss is detrimental to cellular fitness, yet can be an early event in cancer. How can a deleterious genomic alteration initiate tumorigenesis? 🤔 Our latest preprint tackles this paradox using clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) as a model. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

@ODonnellLab_K @CancerResearch Wonderful! Congratulations!

I am thrilled that my postdoc Dr. Shayna Thomas-Jardin was awarded a CRI Ignite Award. This is an amazing transitional award that will fund 2 yrs of postdoc support, and 3 yrs of independent faculty support. Thank you @CancerResearch and CONGRATS Shayna! 🥳

@BoyiGan @CellCellPress @UTMDAnderson @NCIARTNet Big congratulations!!

Our new #openaccess study in @CellCellPress reveals a role of #Cuproptosis (a form of copper-induced cell death) in regulating anti-tumor immunity and overcoming #immunotherapy resistance. @UTMDAnderson @NCIARTNet. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🙌Hey @utswcancer @UTSWMedCenter @UTSWCancerBio @UTSWHemeOnc @UTSWScience @UTSW_Pathology @UTSWMolBiol don't miss the next #KomenBreastCancerForum @jaehyukchoimd to present design of next genereation cell therapies @AriellaHanker @CarlosArteagaMD @hmcarthur 6/17 9am IN PERSON

@DrChoueiri @ZiadBakouny @HHammersMD @EricSingerNow @montypal @tompowles1 @DrRanaMcKay @arihakimi @BradMcG04 @MikeSerzanMD @bergsa83 @advocatekidneys Look forward to joining this exciting meeting!

@KCRS26 is shaping up to be another fantastic meeting for the #kidneycancer community. Great science, great conversations, and great people! Hope to see many of you in Boston on July 23–24, or online if you can’t make the trip. #KCRS26 will bring together leaders in kidney cancer research, clinical care, advocacy, industry, and the patient community. In-person attendance is limited due to space constraints; however, virtual registration is free and open to all. Register: bit.ly/KCRS26Registra… #KidneyCancer @kidneycan

@airdlab @mzspectrum @ApoorvaUboveja Congratulations, Katherine! Great to see it out!

It's time to rewrite reviews-aKG doesn't just regulate demethylation. Work from my lab and @mzspectrum demonstrates a new role for aKG in promoting histone acetylation and DNA repair through regulating carnitine synthesis. Congrats @ApoorvaUboveja! nature.com/articles/s4158…

@QingZhangLab @UTSWMedCenter The SOCS3/JAK1/STAT3/HIF-2α axis represents a new novel regulatory pathway that integrates cytokine signaling with enhancer-mediated transcriptional control in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC): doi.org/10.1172/JCI201…

Offering new targets to overcome treatment resistance in kidney cancer: doi.org/10.1172/JCI201… Jun Fang @JunFang_UTSW Qing Zhang @QingZhangLab & team @UTSWMedCenter discover that cytokine signaling drives kidney cancer by activating a genetic circuit that boosts HIF-2α expression. The figure shows SOCS3 induction by DOX suppressed tumor growth, as revealed by longitudinal bioluminescence imaging at week 0 and week 10. #ccRCC

@ACKoongMDPhD Congratulations, Albert!!

I am humbled and honored to serve our research community that is committed to making advancements in #cancer prevention, detection, treatment, and survivorship. I look forward to advancing our mission to #endcancer by building upon our core strength in translational research.

@PeterLyLab @CellCellPress Congratulations, Peter and team!

Excited to share our latest paper, out today @CellCellPress. We found that large pieces of the human genome can transfer between cells upon direct contact, endowing recipient cells with heritable phenotypic changes. (1/7) cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

@DanaFarber @DrChoueiri Congratulations, Toni! Well deserved!

Congratulations to @DrChoueiri, director of the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology, who was recently elected to one of the nation’s most prestigious medical organizations, the Association of American Physicians. Choueiri joins 47 other AAP members affiliated with Dana-Farber. Read more: bit.ly/499WOv0

@IamLinghua @UTMDAnderson Big congratulations, Linghua!

Deeply grateful to Peggy and Carl Sewell for their visionary $10M gift and their trust in our mission. With this transformative support, we are building a new scientific frontier at @UTMDAnderson to decode the "language" of cancer. mdanderson.org/newsroom/ut-md…

Our vision for the cardio-immunology program at UCSF! We will be hiring new post-doctoral fellows and physicians in this space. Stay tuned for more information! @UCSFCardiology @immunox
