Congratulations to Dr. Antoni Ribas at @UCLA on receiving the AACR Margaret Foti Award for Leadership and Extraordinary Achievements in Cancer Research at #AACR26
Dr. Marge Foti @AACR_CEO at the #AACR26 Opening Ceremony introduces the session and also later pays tribute to those giants of cancer research the field lost in the last year.
Congratulations to the @AACR Fellows at #AACR26
Congratulations to the journalism awardees at #AACR26
Great to see Clifton Leaf, Gary Kelloff, Srivani Ravoori, Edward Wenge Wang, and Jean-Nicolas Gallant at #AACR26. Great to see former trainees have career progression and success. Also great to see friends and decades long colleagues.
Night landing in San Diego. Looking forward to attending #AACR26, learning and networking.

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II.
She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet.
Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.
I wrote about this nearly a decade ago but little has changed.

Life is so random sometimes with running into a former @Penn colleague Dr. Maja Bucan, Ph.D. coming off of a train in PA. We haven’t seen each other in over 15 years. @majabucan
Saddened to learn of the death of Greg Hannon, a former CSHL colleague and giant of modern molecular biology www.cruk.cam.ac.uk/news/in-memo...
The Artemis II crew will reenter Earth's atmosphere tonight. It's considered one of the riskiest steps in any space mission. https://cnn.it/3Q1SZS7
Great to see this event come together at @BrownUniversity @carisls
