Congratulations to Dr. Charles Sawyers, an investigator at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), on receiving the 13th annual Harrington Prize for Innovation in Medicine. Dr. Sawyers, who is Chair of Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program at MSK and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Investigator, was jointly awarded the prize with Dr. Arul Chinnaiyan, an investigator at the University of Michigan and the HHMI. The award recognizes their transformative discoveries that defined the molecular drivers of prostate cancer and pioneered precision therapies that have reshaped the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer worldwide. Together, Drs. Sawyers and Chinnaiyan have developed the contemporary framework for diagnosis and treatment of advanced prostate cancer and a basis for next generation therapies. The Harrington Prize for Innovation in Medicine recognizes their impact on improving outcomes in this deadly disease. Dr. Sawyers also holds the Marie-Josée and Henry R. Kravis Chair in Human Oncology and Pathogenesis at MSK. Learn more: bit.ly/41UnLyI

Excited to share our latest work, out now in @CellCellPress! Led by @ZedaZhang, we uncover a convergent uPAR⁺ tumor ecosystem that creates broad vulnerability to CAR T cell therapy. A collaborative effort with @Michel_Sadelain and @Aveline_Filliol. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

13/ Deepest thanks to my postdoc mentor @SaeedTavazoie @Columbia_Bio , our brilliant collaborator @SohailTavazoie at @RockefellerUniv, and the incredible teams from both labs! Excited to see how this framework grows. Paper link: doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…

We're participating in @Cycle4Survival to raise money for rare cancer research at @MSKCancerCenter, and your support would mean so much to us. Make a 100% tax-deductible donation using the link. Thank you! secure2.convio.net/mskcc/site/TR?…

I’m delighted to announce two major developments for my career: First, I will be joining the amazing @VHIO as a Group Leader! Second, I have been awarded an #ERCStG (MACHETE!) to start my lab @ERC_Research. I look forward to join the vibrant Barcelona research community!

Watch out @officialDannyT, there’s a new MACHETE in town — a powerful technique developed at MSK's Sloan Kettering Institute to study frequent, large-scale genetic deletions in #cancer called copy number alterations. mskcc.org/news/new-mache…

2022 New York City Marathon checked. Hardest/hottest ever. Congratulations all the finishers !Go Fred’s Team! #mskcc

This is a brilliant technology for many usages in the field, and of course the color science! Congratulations @barrigafm and @ktsanov ! Innovations in Genetics !

Impactful work !

Awesome !

Check the latest news about single-cell microbe sequencing, very cool work! Congratulations! @Shijie_Zhao

@Shijie_Zhao @zheng_wenshan @ejalm @peterjameslu @_e_evans @cdaili @animalkewls Congratulations!!

Our paper on single-cell genomic sequencing of the human gut microbiome is now published in Science! Congrats to all of the amazing authors that I am proud to work with: @zheng_wenshan @ejalm @peterjameslu @_e_evans @cdaili @animalkewls and David Weitz science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We are hiring @HHMIJanelia systems cell surface biology, neuro, immune, method development lilab.science/join-us
