I haven’t been active lately, like many others who’ve grown to dislike here since the takeover, which made it insufferable. I’ve now decided to join my colleagues on the other side, where I hope we can revive pathology, dermatology, and science spaces. 🎈

Catching up with friends and colleagues at the American Society of Dermatopathology 60th Annual Meeting with the greatest mentor GJ @ASDPTweets #dermatopathology #asdp @MOccidentalMD

@DrEstherAdler @nyulangone @nyugrossman @NYUGSOMpathres @NYUGSOM_Path 😍😍

Fire thesis talk! Congratulations Dr @mluzsoula

Our (now published) work identifying the major mammalian choline transporter by fantastic @TimCKenny @RockefellerUniv sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@CraigHorbinski @NeuroOnc @TheUSCAP @neuropathology @NeurosurgeryNM @NU_Pathology @BrainTumorInst Great case. Just “melanocytoma” is fair; if it is malignant, it should be called melanoma.

@NeuroOnc @TheUSCAP @neuropathology @NeurosurgeryNM @NU_Pathology @BrainTumorInst Correct, this is a malignant melanocytoma, well done!

Dural-based mass in the right frontal lobe of a middle-aged male patient. Sequencing found a mutation in GNAQ. Diagnosis? #pathology #neuropath #PathTwitter

@RichPossemato @NatMetabolism Awesome work, congrats to everyone 🎈

I am pleased to share new work out in @NatMetabolism, the Magnum Opus of former PhD student Josh Shin! Josh wanted to understand precisely how cancer cells regulate metabolism to meet the demands of each phase of the cell cycle nature.com/articles/s4225…

@JMGardnerMD first described by van gogh (starry night)

What is the name for this spindle cell pattern? What tumor is it classically seen in? Bonus point if you can name this immunostain. Answers (& more pics): kikoxp.com/posts/13000. Video: kikoxp.com/posts/3694 #pathology #pathologists #pathTwitter #dermpath #BSTpath

Twitter is done. I'll now be posting my videos in EPIC secure chat.

@MarcelaSaebL @redsnapperpath @david_terrano @HENRYY_MD @et565 @PIorfino @Dermpathl @DermwizGuy @SimonRoyMD @ChristineJKoMD @DrGeeONE Scratching my head after reading all the comments, but I think desmoplastic nevus might be the case too

@redsnapperpath @david_terrano @HENRYY_MD @et565 @PIorfino @Dermpathl @DermwizGuy @SimonRoyMD @ChristineJKoMD @DrGeeONE I do think this is desmoplasic nevus. But this is me.

@theLundLab @katie_ventre Congrats @katie_ventre 🎊👯‍♀️🪩

Congrats to @katie_ventre who officially became a PhD candidate today!!🍾 well done! #spacematters 🪐🛸 #theLundLab

#ASDP22 was a blast! First in-person meeting, so many fantastic people, so many great memories. Till next time!

This is a wonderful opportunity for scientists/physicians who are interested in melanoma/cancer biology! Happy to chat if anyone considers.

@HENRYY_MD @Dr_Jukic That's a great thought, I didn't have the assessment, was there a melanoma compatible mutation described?

#ASDP22 #dermpath @Dr_Jukic Drazen, you had some tough cases shown at the self-assessment course! about your case of ear lesion (you called HG sarcoma with cartilage diff), you mentioned PRAME strong positivity and Loss H3K27me3. could this be dedifferentiated melanoma?

An exciting two days at NCI MetNet meeting with NYU- U54 gang 🐝

Running into @KivancBirsoy for the first time in years and he is giving this amazing talk at NCI Metastasis Research Network meeting 🫁

Can you make diagnosis from one pic, or is it #TooCloseToDiagnose? Answer & pic with labels/arrows: kikoxp.com/posts/10624. Video: kikoxp.com/posts/4376. #pathology #pathologists #pathTwitter #dermpath #dermatology #dermatologia #dermtwitter

@ChristineJKoMD not the best membranous staining but sebaceous ca 😲 where was it located

Basaloid tumor: posted WSI of PRAME (left), adipophilin (top right), BerEP4 (bottom right) at kikoxp.com/posts/16577 H and E there as well but will attach also to original tweet #dermpath #PathTwitter
