Matthew D. Park, Ph.D.

Thrilled to share our first study on aging from @MiriamMerad lab @IcahnMountSinai @TischCancer @SinaiImmunol in which we demonstrate how aging promotes cancer. We show that: (1/n) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

🚨 Our new #preprint is out! doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… We used #PerturbMap spatial functional genomics in pancreatic cancer to track tumor clone dynamics and uncover how extracellular factors like Serpine1 and Serpinb2 drive immune evasion. 🧵 (1/8)

I’m happy to share our latest work on tumour necrosis! During my time in the @megeblad lab, we found that tumour necrosis is not a passive phenomenon secondary to tumour growth, but an active phenomenon driven by neutrophils and NETs! Thread below: (1/13) nature.com/articles/s4158…

New @WSJ article, covering our recent work @IcahnMountSinai @SinaiImmunol from lab of @MiriamMerad on how an aging immune system promotes cancer and the trials at @MountSinaiNYC that leverage immunotherapies targeting inflammaging to combat cancer: wsj.com/health/inflamm…

This is part of the "inflammaging" story that drives cancer and other age-related diseases gift link wsj.com/health/inflamm…

Congratulations to the @A_P_S_A advocacy team on this new piece highlighting mental health challenges and solutions in medical scientist trainee populations. @SinaiMSTP nature.com/articles/s4385…

I'm very excited to be participating in the @AJIAorg regional meeting at @IcahnMountSinai as a short talk speaker! Looking forward to connecting w members of the organization and sharing the exciting work done and ongoing at @MiriamMerad lab @TischCancer @SinaiImmunol!

A must-read review on the recent developments in the field that refine our understanding of IL-1 in cancer development and progression: Distinguishing pathogenic inflammation from other signals and knowing when and where it drives disease are essential!

I recently had the opp. to appear as a guest on the @goodlifeproject hosted by @jonathanfields to discuss my work on cancer and aging and the amazing clinical trial work happening @SinaiImmunol @IcahnMountSinai @GradSchoolSinai goodlifeproject.com/podcast/aging-… feeds.acast.com/public/shows/6…

I'm excited to share a new review @NatureRevCancer from @MiriamMerad lab @SinaiImmunol led by X-less Chang Moon. We offer one of the most comprehensive reviews of DC functions, phenotypes, and maturation at steady-state and in cancer. It is a must-read! doi.org/10.1038/s41568…
