We’re opening the lab and recruiting at all levels! Come work with us on functional genomics in brain tumors. liulab.ucsf.edu @NeurosurgUCSF @UCSFCancer
Excited for @LukeGilbertSF and for continuing our work at @arcinstitute!
We're thrilled to announce that Luke Gilbert will be joining Arc as a Core Investigator! @LukeGilbertSF is a pioneer in developing CRISPR technology for editing the epigenome, with a particular focus on understanding the genetics & epigenetics of cancer. Welcome to Arc, Luke!
@sjohnliu speaking about in vivo functional genomics as an approach for discovery of therapeutic targets in #glioblastoma from work with @LukeGilbertSF and @LabRaleigh. @EANOassociation #eano2024 @NeurosurgUCSF @UCSFCancer @UCSF
New collaborative paper with @LukeGilbertSF showing the feasibility and value of in vivo functional genomics for understanding #glioblastoma. Congratulations to lead author @sjohnliu and all the other investigators! @NeurosurgUCSF @UCSFCancer @UCSF link.springer.com/article/10.118…
Happy to report our platform for functional interrogation of cancer and microenvironment cells! Another step toward better treatments for glioblastoma. genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… @LukeGilbertSF @LabRaleigh @arcinstitute @NeurosurgUCSF
An honor taking part in the @SAAswim San Francisco open water swim today benefitting @UCSFChildrens @NeurosurgUCSF !
New featured image on our homepage! nature.com/ncomms/ 3 papers on schwannomas, tumors of the nervous system derived from Schwann cells @VasuLabUCSF @LabRaleigh @sjohnliu #CancerResearch @NatResCancer nature.com/articles/s4146… nature.com/articles/s4146… nature.com/articles/s4146…
Out now! Schwannoma-omics led by the incomparable @sjohnliu @LabRaleigh. nature.com/articles/s4146…
Much more to come on the heels of this fantastic collaboration @LukeGilbertSF @LabRaleigh @arcinstitute @NeurosurgUCSF biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Some schwannomas act like injured nerves--mechanism for growth? Great work by @BhuviP TomBarrett with @SidPuram @allegra_petti labs biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Also see wonderful study on schwannoma epigenetic reprogramming by @LabRaleigh biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Is schwannoma a prototypical epigenetic and microenvironment driven disease? We think so. Many years in the making on this one.
2 #schwannoma pre-prints! @LabRaleigh and lead author @sjohnliu identify epigenetic mechanisms underlying schwannoma molecular groups: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Meanwhile, @AlbertHKimMDPhD finds nerve injury-like cell states distinguish schwannoma cells: biorxiv.org/content/10.110….
