🎉 The dream is coming true! I'm thrilled to share that I will be returning to Montreal in Jan2025 to open my lab at @CRCHUM and @etsmtl! We'll be dedicated to advancing precision oncology, developing cutting-edge omic tools to enhance patient care. 🧬 #newPI
Superstar in the making! @rmassonix receiving Young Investigator Prize 🏆 from Catalan Society of Biology at the Institut d'Estudis Catalans. Proud to have been his PhD mentor at @cnag_eu. Sky is the Limit! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Honored to be nominated to the Executive Committee of the Society for Basic Urologic Research @UrologySBUR! If elected, I’ll work to expand the society’s scientific scope, enhance mentorship pathways, and foster collaborations that empower the next generation of investigators.…
Let’s goooo Fede! Beautiful work
Excited to share our first lab paper, now published in @Dev_Cell! 🧠 How do glioblastoma (GBM) cells invade the brain, and what enables them to spread so effectively?
Spatial omics data starting to show some good clinical utility: "Spatial immune scoring system predicts hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence" nature.com/articles/s4158… likely the tip of the molecular iceberg @Nature
I forgot to mention! We're recruiting graduate students to develop the next generation of cancer detection tools. Our lab is ideally located in #Montreal and is affiliated with @CRCHUM and @etsmtl ^amazing place to go from innovation ▶️ clinic Apply: tinyurl.com/mwtaesee
What happens when sequencing costs go ⏬ ? Imagination and new opportunities go ⏫ @landau_lab Let's look at what you can do when you perform deep WGS on cfDNA for cancer detection. Our recent work with the @UltimaGenomics platform 🧵👇 Lets goooo!! rdcu.be/ehkUb
The integration of duplex sequencing with cost-effective Ultima sequencing enhances the accuracy of whole-genome circulating cell-free DNA profiling. @landau_lab @AlexandrePCheng nature.com/articles/s4159…
🧬 We’re excited to introduce D&D-seq, a single-cell technology that maps DNA:Protein interactions through molecular footprinting.. Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #Genomics #Epigenetics
Excited to share our new @biorxivpreprint from the Paszek Lab @Cornell! We developed an optical method using SAIM to screen therapeutic agents that disrupt the cancer cell glycocalyx, a barrier to immune attack. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #glycotime
Second person in the family to become an academic: Cons: - No money - No investments - Questionable career prospects - Wearing a backpack Pros: - second in peer-reviewed articles vs siblings
First person in the family to become an academic: Cons: - No money - No investments - Questionable career prospects - Wearing a backpack Pros: - more peer-reviewed articles than siblings
