ALL-TIME RECORD | We are proud to award 90  new research grants valued at $10.8 million as part of our annual competition. The grants are awarded to some of the most promising cancer research projects in Canada. 🎉🔬 👉 bit.ly/3xUiHfe #CancerResearchSociety

#GENETICS and #G3journal are pleased to announce a Call for Papers on Genetic Models of Rare Diseases. This new series is led by Brenda Andrews, Hugo Bellen, @dougfowler42, and @HieterLab; submissions for the launch issue are due November 14! #rarediseases bit.ly/3dtembD

🎉 Congratulations to everyone who received awards in August! ☀️ Dr. Philip Hieter (@HieterLab) received a @CIHR_IRSC grant to expand the impact and reach of the Canadian ‘#RareDiseases: Models and Mechanisms’ Network. See more award winners: scienceinvancouver.com/2022/09/01/aug…

The Hieter Lab is at #yeast22. Anthony Oppedisano is presenting "Mutational Scanning to find Synthetic Lethal interactions with the repair endonuclease Mus81" on Friday evening. Poster 177B.

I’m very excited to share that my PhD work is now published @eLife! We used a combination of genetics, cell biology and biochemistry to identify a new endosomal complex in yeast, which we named VINE 🌿 Early access here: elifesciences.org/articles/77035. (1/n).

Congratulations to Dr. Leanne Amitzi on her graduation today! 🎓 Dr. Amitzi, of the @HieterLab, has successfully earned her Doctor of Philosophy (#PhD) in Medical #Genetics ! 🎉🧬

Drs. Peter Stirling (@pcstirling), David Huntsman, & Philip Hieter (@HieterLab) received an @OvarianCanada/@SRC_CRS grant to develop drugs that will convert proteins that normally repair DNA into toxic agents that selectively kill #OvarianCancer cells. 🧬 bit.ly/3rrb6Cw

@MEDGGSA @pcstirling Congratulations Peter @pcstirling.

Congratulations @pcstirling on the faculty teaching award! Lots of wonderful quotes from his mentees as a supportive and motivational supervisor 🥳. #MedgRD2021

New from us in collaboration with the Moffat Lab at @DonnellyCentre. Great work by Melanie Bailey using CRISPR screens to find STAG2 dependencies in 3 different cell lines.

Great review of disease modelling and drug discovery in worms! Really highlights how versatile worms are. journals.biologists.com/dmm/article/14…
