👏🥳Congrats to Alannah MacDonald, PhD student from my lab and Dr. Brian Raught’s lab, for her 4th place poster award at the MYC Conference in Stockholm! @alannahskye23 #science #research #MYC
💡Curious how to boost statins' cancer-fighting power? Sterol-like compounds may be the key, targeting SREBP2 to amplify statins' effect on prostate cancer. Intrigued? Read our groundbreaking study here 👇 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #CancerResearch #ProstateCancer #statins
Great spotlight on @DosDiandra , postdoc in my lab! She is researching how statin drugs, which target the metabolic mevalonate pathway, can be utilized to improve prostate cancer treatment. Get to know her beyond her scientific endeavors! #NextGenUHN #scientists #science
Welcome to our Postdoc Spotlight series! Meet @DosDiandra , a dedicated researcher in cancer field at UHN. Discover more about her work and the person behind the science! #NextGenUHN @PMResearch_UHN @UHN_Research @uhntrainees @pmcancercentre Stay tuned to meet our researchers!
🚨Exciting news! Our study is now out! Sterol-mimetic drugs block the SREBP2 feedback loop in prostate cancer, enhancing fluvastatin's anti-cancer effects and slowing progression. #ProstateCancer #Research #Statins sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @DosDiandra @UHN @UHN_Research
Yesterday, we celebrated the arrival of summer and welcomed our new summer students to the lab! It was a fun afternoon, full of great conversations and bonding with our new team members. Cheers to a summer of discovery and progress in cancer research! 🥂🧠💡
Congratulations to Dr. Diandra (@DosDiandra )for her impressive presentation at the EACR 2024 Congress: Innovative Cancer Science, held in Rotterdam, where she also received a travel grant award! 🇳🇱💡👩🔬
👏🇨🇦🧪Congratulations to Peter @hellopeterlin for his insightful presentation at the AACR Special Conference on Expanding and Translating Cancer Synthetic Vulnerabilities, held in Montreal! #CancerResearch #sciencenews
💡📷Dr. Dean Felsher's seminar at PMCRT highlighted MYC-driven cancers and promising research from Stanford Medicine. Inspiring talks on oncogene addiction and innovative model systems left us hopeful. Grateful to co-host this seminar with Dr. Tak Mak. 📷 ⭐️
Thursday's seminar at Princess Margaret Institute with our speaker Dr. Edward V. Prochownik shed light on the mechanisms behind c-Myc oncoprotein-driven cancers! #CancerResearch #Innovation
