Peyton High 🧬

Happy to share the newest review from our lab highlighting monospecific ADCs, bispecific ADCs, and other novel drug-conjugates targeting the HER family 🧬 @KendraCarmonLab @CaraGuernsey @shradsub @JoanJacob_1 #ADC #EGFR #HER2 #HER3 nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

Proud of our students like Peyton, who are taking advantage of the many networking and funding opportunities available to advance their important research. I look forward to reading your upcoming article in Cell Reports Medicine, @PeytonsPhD. #WeAreGSBS #CancerResearch @DianeBodurka @CarinHagberg @kmo1001001

With support from the Dr. John J. Kopchick Fellowship, PhD student Peyton High is developing next-generation cancer therapies designed to precisely target tumor cells while sparing healthy tissues.

Salk welcomed 10 future postdoctoral candidates to campus for the second annual Discover Symposium. They present their research, connect with other Salk trainees, attend panels to learn more about the Institute, and network with potential Salk faculty advisors to facilitate mentor-mentee pairing opportunities across disciplines of biology, a format not typically found in traditional postdoctoral interview formats. They also had the opportunity to participate in the annual Salk Volleyball Tournament and successfully got their team to the championship finals!

There will be formal pics to follow but heres a candid of our 2025 DISCOVER awardees ⁦@salkinstitute⁩ this year. They blew me away with their brilliant talks yesterday and so did our Salk Faculty at the data blitz!

So pleased to share that MTB students Nicolas Moreno, Peyton High & Sseu-Pei Hwang have been awarded the Dean’s Research Scholarship - the highest honor given to graduate students at the McGovern Med. School & we are so proud of their exceptional achievement. Congratulations! 🎉

So proud of all my amazing GSBS students that presented at GSRD today! Congrats to Cara, Peyton & Shraddha for their presentation awards, and Dr. Joan Jacob for receiving the Michael R. Blackburn Award! 🎉😁 #GSRD2025 #WeAreGSBS @MTBatGSBS @TAPatGSBS

Proud of the three graduate students who presented their research at MD Anderson Cancer Center’s Research Town Hall today and answered questions about their important work to better understand brain and colorectal cancer, embryonic development and fertility challenges. Participating in opportunities like these is critical to the dialogue about your groundbreaking discoveries, the collaboration that’s possible, and the ongoing support needed for your work with your mentors. Thank you for your dedication to all that’s possible in biomedical science! #WeAreGSBS #biomedicalscience #cancerresearch @CarinHagberg @DianeBodurka @kmo1001001 @PeytonsPhD @hanbitbaek @MTBatGSBS

Congratulations to the Fall 2024 Common App award recipients, round 2! The Graduate School community is proud of all graduate students who won awards! See the complete list of recipients at loom.ly/2GcOYBA. #WeAreGSBS

Happy LAB-entine’s Day from the Carmon Lab!! 💕💕💕💕💕

Congratulations to MTB student Peyton High on being named one of this year’s Dr. John J. Kophick fellowship recipients! The fellowship recognizes students who demonstrate exceptional character, extracurricular leadership, research excellence, and scholarly merit. #WeAreGSBS

Starting off the new year right, several MTB students were recently named recipients of awards through this year’s Fall Common Application and other external fellowships. Highlighted here are some of these awesome accomplishments; congrats everyone! 🎉👏

How do we build a new generation of safer and more active ADCs for treating cancer? 👉By understanding how they actually work (and stop working) In this @CD_AACR review, we retrace 40 years of ADC development, highlighting key lessons learned. 🧵 below aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscover…

Long deserved lunch outing to celebrate fellowships, awards, papers, grants, and new graduate students in the lab!! Keep up the great work!! 😁 👏

Congratulations to our second-year MTB students as they officially celebrated joining their PhD labs at today’s lab coat ceremony! This marks a great success and is an exciting step along their PhD journeys! 👏🎊

Congrats to Peyton for winning 2nd in post-candidacy oral presentation and Shraddha for winning 3rd in the post-candidacy poster competition!! Way to go!! 🎉

Fun time at the TAP retreat today!! Peyton, Cara, Shraddha and all the TAP students did a great job presenting! 👏
