The diverse roles of the circadian clock in #cancer nature.com/articles/s4301… 🕒 Circadian disruption is more than lost sleep—it's a cancer risk factor. New research shows links between clock misalignment and tumor biology, immunity, and DNA repair. Chronotherapy could be the…
BREAKING: Federal Judge Breyer just ruled that Trump must revert control of the National Guard back to Governor Gavin Newsom because Trump’s actions were illegal. A victory for the rule of law! Trump is not king!
Looking forward to sharing our recent work at #SLEEP2025! Circadian Medicine session starting in about an hour and I’ll be discussing approaches to timing cancer immunotherapy. See you there!

Couldn’t agree more! We showed that timing of immunotherapy is critical for treatment efficacy. Happy to see the clinical data is consistent and supports the importance of chronomedicine based approaches. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Funny how two of the more interesting pieces of data at #ASCO25 have little to do with extraneous medications per se, but rather the body’s circadian rhythm and physiology: 1: Exercise after surgery 2: Checkpoint inhibitors in the morning
Delighted to see data like this to really put chronotherapy on the map and validate lots of circadian immunology studies
First randomized trial testing circadian rhythm and time of immunotherapy administration show impressive results and some biological correlates open a research field in this setting #ASCO25 @OncoAlert

Check out our latest story @NatureCancer co-led with @masrilab that reviews how the circadian clock intersects several aspects of cancer biology. Excited to be part of this team effort to understand impacts on DNA repair, early onset cancer, and cancer treatment 💪🧬🕔
Super happy to share our latest in @NatureCancer co-led by @pannunziolab! We review the complex role of the circadian clock in genome integrity, DNA repair, immunity, metabolism, and cancer with a specific focus on early-onset cancer. Check it out! nature.com/articles/s4301…

Happy to share our new story published in @Cell_Metabolism regarding oral fructose tolerance test and blood glycerate measurements as a potential predictor of individual vulnerability to fructose-induced fatty liver disease. Awesome collaboration with @YangLabUCLA. Congrats all!
We are super excited about our lab's first manuscript & being selected for the cover of the issue! We found that when clocks of host, parasite and mosquito align, transmission⬆️. Major congrats Ines, @BriannaPar7 and Rushlenne! @UCBerkeleySPH @berkeleyMCB @NatureMicrobiol
