Honored to receive the F99/K00 award from the NCI! Couldn’t have done it without the incredible mentorship of Phoenix Miao and the support of the UChicago cancer research community! @UChicagoCCB @UCCancerCenter

Proud mentor moment!!! Congratulate my first graduate student @BenNicholson78 for passing his qualify exam. Having dim sum with the whole lab, including Bagel, is a great way to celebrate Ben's important milestone.

Still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that I have been awarded the @NCICancerBio F99/K00. I can’t shake the feeling that someone like me (Latinx immigrant) has earned such an honor, but I know it’s not just mine. Eternally thankful to everyone who has taken a chance on me.

Meet Young Investigator @YMphoenix. His research asks "How might tumor initiating cells hijack stem cell features to evade immunotherapy?" Read about his work at cancerresearchfdn.org/recipi… #cancerresearch #immunotherapy
Yuxuan 'Phoenix' Miao, PhD | Dr. Miao is pursuing Tumor Initiating Calls which drive resistance to and recurrence after immunotherapy. These TICs seem to shape their immune system environment the same way skin stem cells do when closing a wound. Dr. Miao has a new technique to map out how TICs might do that.
