Excited to share our new Expert View in Vita! We explore lineage plasticity as a cellular “time machine”: how cancer cells rewind developmental programs to escape therapy, and how this could help us identify the next key regulator of lineage plasticity. vita-journal.com/vita/EN/10.…

Great to be at Indiana University for the 2nd Annual GU Cancer Symposium. Excited to share our work and discuss new advances in prostate cancer research. Thank you @IUuro and @asmaakenawy for the kind invitation and warm welcome.
The 2nd annual IU Genitourinary Cancer Symposium is underway! First guest speaker is @PingMu_PhD. We are looking forward to a great event! @asmaakenawy

Today, we honor Dr. Jane Ying Wu on what would have been her 63rd birthday. A prominent American neuroscientist, a mother, a friend, and a dreamer who came to this country for a better life. Learn more: buff.ly/VuVqFvu

Excited to share our latest study led by @YanixaQuinones in collaboration with @Yanshen73854711! We find that the pre-existing molecular state dominates over the effects of specific #KRAS mutations in #PancreaticCancer cells. @YaleGenetics @YaleCancer academic.oup.com/molecular-o…

Very excited to see Spatial-ATAC-Hi-C published in @NatureMethods! Thanks to @yuefeng_1 for leading this effort. It jointly maps 3D genome organization and chromatin accessibility in tissues, revealing spatial epigenetic heterogeneity, CNV, and structural variations in tumor! 🥳
Excited to share Spatial-ATAC-Hi-C @naturemethods, spatial profiling of 3D genome organization + chromatin accessibility in tissue. Excitingly, it detects CNVs and SVs in tumors and reveals spatial heterogeneity.
Great collaboration with @RongFan8.

Excited to see this in print! Congratulations @StimulatedRaman for spearheading this study showing the power of multimodal nanoscopy in revealing the hidden biology of our lymphomas in transformation. #hemepath #lymsm
In collaboration with Professors Rong Fan, Mina Xu, and Zongming Ma, we have jointly developed a novel technology, "redcat". Applied to rare Richter's transformation lymphoma samples:@RongFan8 @MinaXu7 @ZongmingMa
Thankful for a beautifully-written Spotlight cell.com/trends/immunology/f… on @FarzadNegin's study showing spatial redistribution of "SenSpots" in the lymph node as we age, accentuating the role of B cells in senescence. @sennetresearch @RongFan8 cell.com/cell-press-blue/ful…
Thrilled to attend and speak at the Cancer Grand Challenges Conference on Spatial Biology in London this September. I will share our @theNCI #HTAN project on seeing #RNA biology in action in the #lymphoma atlas to advance biomarker discovery and precision oncology!
In September, we're bringing together global leaders in cancer research, technology development and clinical practice to explore the frontiers of spatial biology.
In addition to scientific talks, we'll be hosting two panel discussions:
🗓️ Day 1 | From bench to bedside: Accelerating deployment for real-world impact
How do we ensure spatial biology innovations reach the people who need them most? Chaired by Peter Sorger, this panel will explore how we can accelerate the translation of discoveries into clinical practice, helping drive meaningful impact for patients. Featuring insights from Bernd Bodenmiller, @RongFan8, Joanna Kowal, @LoiSher and @BarbMarte.
🗓️ Day 2 | Beyond the dataset: Scaling, standardising, and sharing spatial biology
Chaired by @jrswedlow, this discussion will focus on the infrastructure needed to unlock the full potential of spatial biology. Panellists Josephine Bunch, Nicola Cahill, @dana_peer and @adamjtaylor will explore how to standardise approaches and share data effectively for greater impact.
👉 This conference is now sold out. To hear about future Cancer Grand Challenges conferences, follow our page and subscribe to our newsletter: bit.ly/4g7dZ4t

Federation of Asian Professor Associations (FAPA) Council Members and Board of Directors at the Inaugural Conference earlier this month. Proud to be part of the organization.
So fun to help host the summer party for the most productive lab I’ve ever worked with @RongFan8…complete with intense competitions, lab-appropriate prizes and even a special guest appearance by famous alum @Zhiliang_Bai. And welcome to all the newbies!
