Back in 2017 I was sitting in a pub with @JohannesMeiser to celebrate his moving from @CRUK_SI to @LIH_Luxembourg, hoping for a common future in academia. Flashforward 2024: our #cancermetabolism project has just been funded by @frsFNRS @televie and I can't be happier! #ProudPIs
RÉSULTATS | ❤️ @televie : Les 12.239.019,49 € récoltés en 2024 financeront 90 projets et 99 scientifiques dans la recherche contre le cancer ! frs-fnrs.be/docs/Resultats… ➕ Le communiqué de presse : frs-fnrs.be/docs/Communiqu…
What a great way to start the new year! Congratulations @Gysurf and @FendtLab for this fantastic story linking cancer metabolism and mRNA translation now out in @Nature. Thanks for having us on board! @pierreclose1 @GIGA_ULiege Please see the thread below 👇
Beyond excited to share that the main work of my PhD on how aspartate signaling drives metastasis is finally out in @Nature ✨ -> go.nature.com/4gCYtuL A huge thank to the @Fendtlab and all our collaborators for the terrific team work 🙏 @KU_Leuven @vib_ccb A brief🧵
Congratulations @MJNokin on this exciting piece of work. Another evidence that targeting ferroptosis has an enormous clinical potential, but the timing and the context should be carefully evaluated. @GIGA_ULiege @UniversiteLiege @televie @frsFNRS @Ferroptosis1 @Ferroptosis2306
"In vivo vulnerabilities to GPX4 and HDAC inhibitors in drug-persistent versus drug-resistant BRAFV600E lung adenocarcinoma" out on @CellRepMed by our #OncoAlertAF 🚨Colleague @BiagioRicciutMD 🇺🇸and Team sciencedirect.com/science/articl… This study investigates the vulnerabilities of…

Check out our new publication @NatureComms . Our studies found that G6PD is essential for KL but not KP lung tumorigenesis. Thus, targeting G6PD could be a potential therapeutic strategy for tumors with KRAS and LKB1 co-mutations. nature.com/articles/s4146…
On my way back from @ISCaM_Society . What a fantastic meeting that was! Amazing science done by fantastic scientists! Also extremely proud of our PhD students that did a terrific job in representing the lab. It was a blast! @MorganePaque @pierreclose1 @GIGA_ULiege


Final of a fantastic @ISCaM_Society conference! A stellar lineup of speakers! If you're around don't miss this afternoon's lipid metabolism session with our two @GIGA_ULiege superstar students @MorganePaque and #notwitterNing giving updates on their respective projects #proudPI
💫NEW: @pierreclose1 & co show that MAPK therapy upregulates valine aminoacyl-#tRNA synthetase and alters fatty acid oxidation, providing a resistance mechanism that may be therapeutically targeted. #melanoma #TherapyResistance nature.com/articles/s4155…

Happy to share the latest publication from the @pierreclose1 Lab out today in @NatureCellBio! A groundbreaking study connecting mRNA translation and metabolism from a cool angle! 🙌 to @hachem_najla! nature.com/articles/s4155… @UniversiteLiege @GIGA_ULiege @frsFNRS @FondationFcc
Looking for a postdoc? Why don't you join us in beautiful Belgium to do some cool science and have lots of fun! Great mentorship and fantastic international collaborators provided (we also have good beers 🍻!). Thanks for sharing 🙌 @GIGA_ULiege @televie @frsFNRS @Stkstichting
I am recruiting a talented and dedicated postdoc! tRNA epitranscriptomics-immunoOncology Please apply @ [email protected] giga.uliege.be/upload/docs/ap… @Translacore @EACRnews @epitran @TSI_lab_LIH @ArnBlomme
Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models allow cancer researchers to study tumour tissue from patients in mice. Our @CRUKLungCentre paper @NatureComms describes 48 new PDX models and highlights the importance of intratumor heterogeneity in the development of cancer models (1/9)
Congratulations @JohannesMeiser ! Another milestone for you! Great duo with @FrezzaLab too 🔥
