Excited to announce our study (w/ @RukmanThota & @MaxKrummel) published today @Nature:
Macrophages “hold our living identities” by taking tiny bites from living cells and presenting this information to CD8 T cells.

Dr. Minhajuddin at @CUMedicalSchool and team show that venetoclax/dasatinib is a leukemia stem cell (LSC) selective regimen in blast phase CML and that disrupting LIPA and fatty acid transport enhances venetoclax/dasatinib response in targeting LSCs.

Delighted to share our new work in @BloodJournal led by the outstanding and creative Dr. Kira Young! Kira embarked on a journey to understand why individual organisms exhibit natural variation in hematopoietic aging phenotypes. Interesting question! doi.org/10.1182/blood.202402…

Worth the read.

I wrote a blog post about scientific racism and the @AllofUsResearch figure illustrating their ancestry analysis. The post was inspired by a presentation of @DelaneyKSull at our lab DEI meeting organized by @NikhilaSwarna last week.

Excited to share our review article in @BloodJournal on the Causes and Consequences of Clonal Hematopoeisis
This was fun to write. Hope it summarizes the state of the field to date.
As always, shout out to the 🐐, Ben Ebert!

First of many this year….my first-first author publication is out in the world-preprint below! And my first oral presentation @ASH_hematology this year. So much to look forward to- none possible without the support of @CraigTJordanLab @DanPollyea @CUHemeOnc @CUHematology #ASH23

Our latest work, led by @PhilRauchMD and @Jk_Gopakumar in collaboration with Ben Ebert, Peter Libby, and others, on mouse models of atherosclerosis with loss of Tet2 or Dnmt3a! Really fortunate to be able to work with such a talented group. rdcu.be/dlcy1

Happy to share our work identifying common pathways promoting heightened innate immune cell activation with loss of either Dnmt3a or Tet2, the two most commonly mutated genes in CHIP, in the context of atherosclerosis.

Happy to share our work in @jclinicalinvest on RUNX1 loss in leukemic progression. Using primary human samples, we find a targetable dependency of RUNX1-mutant leukemias on IL-3/JAK/STAT signaling. Magnificent work by @amycfanphd!
