Super cool work, congrats Andrea and the team!

CRISPR-StAR enables high-resolution genetic screening in complex in vivo models - Nature Biotechnology Pooled genetic CRISPR screening is improved in complex models through leveraging internal controls.

Today we published a new paradigm to do CRISPR screens in complex model systems such as in vivo but also e.g. in organoids. The publication came out in Nature Biotechnology.

Very interesting insight into tumor-immune interaction under chemotherapy in ovarian cancer. Congrats Anniina, Anna and the teams!

Congrats Direna, fantastic news!

Ageing limits stemness and tumorigenesis by reprogramming iron homeostasis - Nature Studies using mouse models of lung adenocarcinoma identify an association between age, iron homeostasis and tumour initiation potential that involves NUPR1 and lipocalin-2.

New in @natureportfolio.bsky.social from the Tuomas Tammela Lab: how aging suppresses tumorigenesis and stemness in the lung by promoting functional iron insufficiency in the alveolar epithelium. Interestingly, this renders aged cells resistant to ferroptosis. #OncSky www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Congrats Anais and @guillemxtivill.bsky.social, you've done such a fantastic job with this!

Inflammatory monocytes can restimulate T cells in tumors, and cancer cell-induced disruption of this process can lead to tumor immune evasion. Details 👇 in the wonderful 🧵 by @obenaufa.bsky.social and the paper published today @Nature. What a privilege it has been to be part of this amazing team!

Maybe me too? Thanks so much!
