A @UAZCancer researcher received a $1.7M grant to continue the Convergent Science Virtual Cancer Center, with the University of Southern California, training researchers to address cancer risks in military communities. More: tinyurl.com/4nsxvp9r
We are excited to welcome seven new Scholars to the CSVCC! Each of them brings valuable expertise and perspectives that will strengthen our convergent science community. To learn more about our Scholars and the work of the CSVCC, visit csvcc.org.
Our work on Macrophages and Breast cancer brain metastasis is finally out @PNASNews doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… Thanks editors,reviewers, and all authors.
I am looking forward to presenting a short talk on our work on macrophage ontogeny at the @ISEHSociety annual meeting.
A great collaboration with my friend @JunQiLab. We screened a small molecule library targeting epigenetic regulators curated by Jun’s team using our dual reporter system. The ensuing mechanistic work required innovative chemical and rigorous molecular biology.

Disrupting cell communication in glioblastoma— @PeiwenChen9 and team @ClevelandClinic discover GPNMB mediates bidirectional communication between GBM stem cells and tumor-associated macrophages and microglia: insight.jci.org/articles/view/…
Improving immunotherapy in glioblastoma! @PeiwenChen9 & team @ClevelandClinic discover targeting legumain—which promotes infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages via the GSK3β/STAT3 pathway—has anti-tumor effects and improves immunotherapy in preclinical GBM models:…
Happy to share our work out at @jclinicalinvest We identified a new tumor-macrophage interaction contributing to GBM progression/immunosuppression and found that targeting the symbiosis sensitizes GBM to immunotherapy. Huge thanks to editors and reviewers. jci.org/articles/view/…
Connecting the dots for the future of cancer research! This year’s CSVCC ACERT Workshop brought together insightful talks, tours, and hands-on whiteboarding sessions. Grateful to all who contributed their expertise and ideas! #convergentscience #scholars #cancer #militaryhealth
Congratulations to Scholar, @MaayanLevy_Lab!
Here's a new preprint from our group. This manuscript continues our efforts to understand the mechanisms that distinguish fetal/juvenile versus adult hematopoiesis to better understand pediatric blood diseases. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
