Excited to share our preprint on tumor-nerve interactions in pancreatic cancer. Perineural invasion (PNI), a process in which cancer cells invade nerves, is linked to worse outcomes in patients. We define a novel axis by which cancer-nerve crosstalk drives PNI.
The Pdgfd-Pdgfrb axis orchestrates tumor-nerve crosstalk in pancreatic cancer biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #biorxiv_cancer

I never got a high school diploma. This week, I gave the PhD hooding speech at Harvard Med. I told the story of how I got here—and why scientists must talk to the public. If we want science to stay a public good, we need to earn trust I start ~16:55. piped.video/live/1gXanARwVMg…

Amazing gathering of cancer neuroscientists and inspiring talks at #CancerNeuroscienceSymposium this week. @propriodon @EllaPerrauIt #NicoleLester represented the lab brilliantly. Thanks to #MoranAmit #BrandiMattson and team for inviting me; it was really fun to plan together.

🧠🔬 Combining RNR-inhibitor 3-AP (Triapine), an FDA-approved drug crossing the blood-brain barrier, with TMZ improved survival in GBM PDX models. Combination therapy is even effective in TMZ-resistant GBM6R. #TranslationCancerResearch #GBM 7/8
