"I was late learning about science … For much of my scientific training I feared I was behind my peers. But I have been able to close the gap—and that is something to be proud of." #ScienceMagArchives scim.ag/43x2o7j

Thank you @UCSDNeuroSurg for the spotlight. Understanding the effects of sex differences on tumorigenesis is essential to developing personalized therapies for #BrainCancer, which can’t arrive fast enough! #BrainTumorAwarenessMonth

This #BrainTumorAwarenessMonth we highlight Dr. Najla Kfoury-Beaumont (@BKBeaumontLab), who is working to understand why men and women experience different treatment responses and outcomes by studying sex-specific epigenetic changes in brain tumors: go.ucsd.edu/3O0D4hj

Fascinating talk from @JoeIppolitoLab on sex differences in glucose and serine metabolism in lung cancer at #OSSD2022!
Take home message: Serine synthesis may be a predictive marker for sensitivity to anti-folates in male but not female patients. #sabv #NSCLC

Key findings of our latest work: 1) glioblastoma transcriptional biology spans a constrained continuum … 2) with a limited spectrum of viable cell cohabitation ecologies 3) Relationship btwn GBM ecologies & imaging vary with sex and treatment status #SexMatters #MathOnc #BTSM

Glioblastoma states are defined by cohabitating cellular populations with progression-, imaging- and sex-distinct patterns biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv
