Ramon Sun

thx for the highlight! we aim to double our knowledge in metabolism and produce major breakthroughs in cancer and AD treatments in the next 5 years !

@ThalesPapaG @bensahralab @CD_AACR Beautiful work congrats man !

Excited to see our study published in @CD_AACR. We show how LKB1-mutant lung tumors use autocrine LIF signaling to drive tumor plasticity, reshape the myeloid microenvironment, and evade anti-tumor immunity. doi.org/10.1158/2159-8…

@DMSabatini @apoptosislab @katerinarohlena Darn wish I could go ! Speaker list is phenomenal!

It has come to our attention that some people had trouble registering for the 2026 Prague Metabolism and Signaling meeting in June. So we reopened the registration portal at: praguemetabolismsymposium.com Only a few spots remain! Please RT. @katerinarohlena

@WalterWChen1 @UTSWMedCenter Congratulations!

Thrilled to share that I’ll be starting my lab as an Assistant Professor and Endowed Scholar in @UTSWMedCenter Molecular Biology Dept this Fall! 🥳 We’ll study #peroxisomes #mitochondria #metabolism via the lens of neonatology👶🏻, a very exciting frontier in medicine! #neotwitter

@KivancBirsoy @shanshanliu1218 @gadmark Congratulations! Beautiful study. I heard about this work coming out ! Glad to finally Read about it !

Our new work by @shanshanliu1218 and @gadmark addresses a fundamental question: how does ER maintain its unique oxidizing environment, while rest of the cell is reducing? Here, we identify SLC33A1 as the major ER GSSG exporter in mammalian cells. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Great piece by @UFMBI way to go Elias !!

Congratulations to MBI researcher Dr. Elias Sayour, who was one of three scientists worldwide honored this week at the 2026 BioInnovation Institute & Science Prize for Innovation ceremony in Copenhagen. Learn more: bit.ly/4dLGhAI

Funniest post I seen all week ! We should all stop posting depressing shit and make this the future of academic X. Lol…

New paper on this coming out very soon, stay tuned !

this is so fucking wholesome guy used AI to save his cancer-ridden dog by sequencing its DNA and creating a CUSTOM cure. the tech behind this is fucking awesome (well done @demishassabis and the google team): - used CHATGPT to sequence dogs DNA discovers mutations - ran the mutations through Google’s Alphafold (AI protein sequencer) which CREATED A CUSTOM VACCINE TO TREAT THEM. - treated dog and reduced tumour by 50% in WEEKS. dog is alive and well. - this is the 1st time AI has been used to create a custom vaccine for a dog (and it worked) - dude is now working on similar vaccines for humans using AI! 2026 is definitely the year we see AI change personalised medicine in a HUGE way so sick

Stealing @ishahjain figure to show the power of spatial metabolomics in embryonic research ! We sectioned straight across the skull and negated the need of brain resection and complicate metabolism in post mortem manipulation !

@Hiraselab_KU Beautiful work ! Congratulations. I always wondered what cerebellar glycogen are doing !

New paper. Distribution and functional significance of rodent cerebellar glycogen Huge congrats to Sonam and Ashley, and a big thanks to all our co-authors for the fantastic collaboration! cell.com/iscience/fullt…

@FrancyPolverino haha ! hey u r the queen of COPD !

@RCSunlab How generous lol

thx for the highlight! we aim to double our knowledge in metabolism and produce major breakthroughs in cancer and AD treatments in the next 5 years !

@FrancyPolverino I will help YOU to make that impact on copd haha

@RCSunlab And COPD 🙄

Congratulation @ishahjain, beautiful study, and you are amazing to work /workout with lol!

@ishahjain so cool haha

MALDI-TOF revealed regional (e.g., cortical) defects in serine and 1C levels

Then we changed dietary vitamin B3 levels. Normal diet -> mice live to 5 days of age B3-deficient diet -> in utero lethality High-dose B3 -> dramatic 40x lifespan extension!!! This was particularly exciting because these patients can take B3 immediately without regulatory delay

@TheAlbrecht_Lab @LyssiotisLab @NatMetabolism @UCIrvineHealth Wow beautiful work. Congratulations!!

Excited to share our latest work out today @NatMetabolism @UCIrvineHealth nature.com/articles/s4225…

CS Lewis understood

Tune in to today's #UFMedResearch symposium at 12:40 p.m. to learn more about the work of Ramon Sun, Ph.D., who was named the 2026 @UF College of Medicine Research Innovator and Pioneer. Visit research.med.ufl.edu/events/26324/t… for symposium details and more information.
