Sze Kiat (Owen) Tan 陳詩傑, MD PhD

My paper is hot off the press in Cancer Discovery @CD_AACR! We identified a HIF-dependent adipokine that prevents fatty acid oxidation and escape from ferroptosis in hypoxic tumor.

Congratulations to PGY-3 Dr. Sze Kiat (Owen) Tan on receiving the NIH NINDS UE5 Grant! 🧠 @owensktan will be studying CAR T cell engineering to improve immunotherapy for brain tumors—cutting-edge research that holds incredible promise for patients.

To our incredible residents: your dedication, compassion, and tireless commitment to patient care inspire us every day. Thank you for being the heart of our program and the hope for tomorrow's breakthroughs. ❤️ #ThankAResidentDay

One of the things I like best about vascular neurosurgery is that it’s about saving lives. Patients like this one come in on death’s doorway & we pull them back to life. AVM rupture, large cerebellar hematoma, evacuation+AVM resection, great outcome. In medicine, it doesn’t get any better...
