The Roberts Lab

Delighted to have contributed to this work from the impressive lab of Dr. Ben Garcia! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We are pleased to announce the 2026 recipients of the AACR Scientific Achievement Awards. We look forward to celebrating their impactful contributions to cancer research at the AACR Annual Meeting. brnw.ch/21x1uIG #AACR26

Thank you to all of our coauthors, collaborators, lab members, and funding sources (@StJude @stjudegraduate @NIHfunding @theNCI @CureATRTNow @PedDep) for supporting this work. (8/8)

Finally, we show that PHIP inactivation significantly extends survival in vivo using patient-derived orthotopic xenograft models of pediatric #rhabdoidtumors, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic target. #PediatricCancer #ATRT (7/8)

Excited to share our latest study in @NatureComms where we uncover a new mechanism of chromatin regulation that is essential in certain SWI/SNF-mutant cancers. Congrats to @HaydenMalone3 and coauthors! #SWISNF #cancer (1/8) @stjuderesearch @stjudegraduate nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fascinating new @CellReports paper from @HainerLab directly comparing the effects of all SNF2 family chromatin remodelers upon transcription of mRNAs, eRNAs, and uaRNAs in ES cells. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Cuts in NIH research grants will have a lasting negative impact on science and medicine in the U.S. Grants will continue to fund specific research costs, but essential infrastructure like labs, advanced equipment and support staff are crucial for groundbreaking work.
