❓Did you know that both age and pregnancy affect the genomic landscape of the healthy breast? 🧬 🔬how could this affect #breastcancer risk? Find out more in @NatureComms !! Our paper is out today! 📣📣📣 nature.com/articles/s4146…
Hoping that peer-reviewers don’t rely on AI to review these papers…. 😕 AI linked to explosion of low-quality biomedical research papers nature.com/articles/d4158…
The alarming rise in early-onset and ER+ breast cancer may be linked to chronic exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Our @NatureRevCancer comment calls for urgent research & policy action. @RobertKennedyJr @DrJBhattacharya are we ready to act? nature.com/articles/s4156…

kidney cancers in different parts of the world are the result of different mutagenic exposures @Nature
Did you know placental cells can develop into tumours months to decades after a pregnancy? If you are interested in using genomics to understand the molecular mechanisms of these rare tumours and identify clinical biomarkers, check out our postdoc position imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-jo…
Cancer-promoting mutations are common in healthy tissue but rarely lead to tumour formation. A study of the mouse mammary gland reveals three protective mechanisms that limit the ability of cells to give rise to cancer go.nature.com/3TFO4p1
Great times representing @ImperialSandC and our amazing (imho) studies at the #EACR25 🍷☀️🧬 with @NinaModerau @anast_ala




Excited to share our new study on how resistance to AKT inhibition is linked to lineage differences within breast cancer 👇🏽biorxiv.org/content/10.110… and also surprisingly/worryingly good AI generated podcast 🎧notebooklm.google.com/notebook/28ebc…
From today, all new submissions to Nature that are published will be accompanied by referees’ reports and author responses — to illuminate the process of producing rigorous science go.nature.com/44hKo29
🚨 pre-print alert 🚨 Very excited to share our work on how chomotherapy affects cell-to-cell communication. If you are interesting in #p53, #DNAdamage, #scRNA-seq have a read! Thanks to all authors 🤩@NTUBIOSCIENCES @vanGeestCancer biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
PAPER OUT!! 🥳🎉💃🏻🕺🏻💃🏻🕺🏻 A redefined InDel taxonomy provides insights into mutational signatures @NatureGenet Brainchild of the amazing @GeneChChKoh Tweetorial below!! 👇 1/n nature.com/articles/s4158…

Sometimes we need variety in our cancer sources, and we feel inspired by “slightly” older specimens of benign lesions in dinosaurs - our commentary on the advances of paleoproteomics is now out! 🦕 mdpi.com/3254540 #mdpibiology via @Biology_MDPI
Our lab's very first manuscript is out in BioRxiv. Hope this would be interesting for many breast cancer scientists: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @MCRCnews @MCRBreastCentre @LobularBCUK @FBMH_UoM
❤️🔥 Passionate about gene regulation research, wet/dry lab? 🎡 Excited about London's vibrant research and social scene? 🔬 Looking for a funded postdoc position (+ ideally, have the CV & drive to apply for a fellowship in your 1st year)? Please DM/email me to discuss!
Congratulations to @lcaprio412 @SomnathTagore, many people in my group, and outstanding collaborators @DenisSchapiro @KresBestak @insitubiology @carisls and many others on this paper, profiling non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases nature.com/articles/s4159…
Look forward to sharing our experience of using single cell genomics of premalignant human and mouse tissue to guide preclinical prevention studies for BRCA driven breast cancers Funded by @CRUKresearch
