Celebrating the retirement of my mentor and friend @PearsonRick He worked for @PeterMacRes 40% of his life and I worked with him 32% of my life! The best work comes when we work with people we like, trust &. respect. We celebrated @SVIResearch where he started as a PhD student

Have spatial tissue data but not sure what methods or R packages to use for the analysis? Our paper describing SPIAT for spatial analysis and spaSim to simulate tissue spatial data is now out in Nature Communications! @PeterMacRes @PMPostdocs @PearsonLab1 nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Spatial analysis with SPIAT and spaSim to characterize and simulate tissue microenvironments

Nature Communications - Spatial proteomic data serve to provide cell-level location information for the extraction of biological features from tissues, but analyzing such data can be difficult....

All exercise is beneficial but for cell health, train longer @LuigiFontanaMD @KeefeChan1 smh.com.au/lifestyle/health-…

All exercise is beneficial but for cell health, train longer

Going for a long run or ride might give your body the gift of youth, new research suggests.

Let's talk about how 😴 can stop some cells forming cancers. Firstly, many cancers are driven by the inappropriate activation of molecules that control the growth of normal cells.

In this study, @PearsonLab1 showed that the enzyme cystathionine-beta-synthase (or CBS for short) is required to keep sleeping cells asleep rather than turning cancerous.

Our study highlights the role of CBS in regulating AIS and raises the possibility that manipulating CBS can be a metabolic strategy to target PI3K/AKT-driven cancers. /10
