Congratulations @AprilCWatt on a great talk at @SABCSSanAntonio. Provided the first real explanation of why CDK4/6 inhibitors and endocrine therapy work together, with major implications for understanding resistance and therapy development.

This is very interesting and in a way what could be predicted. Do you think there’s a desire to develop the drugs for this purpose?

Wow!! 🔥🔥 CDK4/6 inhibition prevents selection of #ClonalHematopoiesis with DNA-damage repair mutations after chemotherapy! Awesome presentation from Irenaeus Chan from @KellyLBolton lab! #ASH25

Five awesome posters on CDK4/6 resistance - single cell RNA-seq, 3D chromatin structure and ATAC-seq, new PDX models, and new targets. Feels like we are making real progress as different groups are converging on similar observations! @SABCS25 @SABCSSanAntonio

Happy to have shared the stage with my esteemed colleagues @shomgoel @elmayermd @MOliveira_MD @AMJohnston1315 at #SABCS25 @SABCSSanAntonio on the changing landscape post-CDK4/6i and shared decision making with our patients. It was a great session! @LevineCancer

Dr Santagata discussing how spatial proteomics can identify treatment biomarkers. My questions: (i) can we prove that these assays add predictive information above “standard” tests; (ii) are these research tools or do they have a future in the clinic? @SABCSSanAntonio #SABCS2025

The Goel lab contingent has arrived in San Antonio! Took @AprilCWatt to see the (massive) Hall 1 where she will be presenting on Friday - this isn’t lab meeting, that’s for sure… #SABCS25 @SABCSSanAntonio

We’ve known about tolerant CD8 T cells for >25 yrs – but what are these cells?! Prematurely exhausted, stalled effectors, or something else?
Our latest @ImmunityCP paper takes a deep dive into this question with some unexpected results, including a link to cancer… (1/)

Are you interested in developing powerful predictive models from genomic data? Are you Bayesian-friendly? My lab is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to develop polygenic risk scores that generalises better across ancestry groups.
