Please join us in congratulating our wonderful graduate student Irene Wong, who successfully defended her PhD thesis last week. We are so proud of you, Irene! You can read more about her work here: hms.harvard.edu/news/generatin…



Our lab's newest preprint is out now! We report that airway injury can trigger changes in distant areas of the lungs that were not previously appreciated. We dove into the amazing field of macrophage biology to explain these responses. Check out our story: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Proud to be representing ISSCR and MA today at Congressional Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill with colleagues.

Wishing everyone a very happy International Women's Day! Please join us at the Women in Science Symposium on April 9, 2024 to celebrate some remarkable scientists of the greater Boston area. harvard.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

My final paper at @BCHStemCell @harvardmed @Carlakimlab merges cancer, inflammation and cell plasticity - we identified an injury/plastic state as essential for lung repair that is co-opted by early-stage LUAD! Exciting to see similar findings from @humam_kadara et al. in Nature
Happy #InternationalWomensDay! I'm excited to hold our 2nd annual HMS/HMS Affiliated Women's Day Symposium with my co-chair Marcia Haigis @HaigisLab on April 3rd. Please register here: tinyurl.com/yrfpk34p
Exciting postdoctoral position available in the Rawlins Lab (@LabRawlins) at the University of Cambridge! The Rawlins lab studies lung development and repair using human organoid models. Deadline 6th Feb jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/38638/
Thank you @NatureCancer for the chance to share my perspective #NewPI @EMBLBarcelona: growth can sometimes be uncomfortable & science is about the people @HansClevers @LabJacks @LabWinslow @_JamesSharpe @FeldserLab @EReckzeh @FCLynnette @TGOliver2 @Carman_MC_Li @m_foll @nl_alcala
💫Recruiting, securing funding, building a network – early career investigators face many challenges! In “The 2022 generation” hear the inspiring stories of 12 PIs who started their teams in the past year. #newPI #2022InReview nature.com/articles/s4301… rdcu.be/c1Ymf
Congrats to former postdoc, faculty member Christine Fillmore Brainson, on this exciting new paper! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36525966/
Thank you @JosephMizgerd, it was an honor to give the Jerome S. Brody Lecture at @BUPulmonary yesterday. Many exciting science discussions!

Steve Curtis is now the Director, New Ventures at @AmericanCancer BrightEdge. Steve was the first PhD student in the Kim Lab! It was exciting to learn about how ACS is funding not only research but also new #startups. #CancerResearch #ScienceEntrepreneurship

It was so nice to see Hongmei Lisa Li, a former postdoc in our lab, who works at Takeda Pharmaceutical Company. Lisa was recently promoted to Associate Director in the Neuroscience Drug Discovery Unit. Congratulations, Lisa!

Are the doors for women in science truly open? Here is the latest episode of the Beyond Publications podcast. @CarlaKimLab I think you might find this one interesting. buff.ly/3iaXV5X
Congrats to Vijay and George. So happy for both of them.

Congrats to our grad student, Paul, and his team #onlyfriendsinnyc2022 for participating in the #nycmarathon on Sunday! We were cheering you on from Boston.

Thank you Jingyun for all of your contributions to the Kim Lab! We will miss having you but look forward to seeing your future achievements. @BCHStemCell
