In work published in Science Advances, researchers in the @davidmacphersonlab.bsky.social used #CRISPRCas9 on #SCLC tumor cells to better model how tumors that initially respond to chemotherapy become resistant. www.fredhutch.org/en/news/cent...
Not a small part! Thanks to you and Noah for such a fantastic collaboration
This work was jointly led by graduate students Lauren Brumage and Scott Best @fredhutch.bsky.social. Grateful for key collaborators including @barzin-nabet.bsky.social, @lucasbsullivan.bsky.social as well as reviewers and editors at Science Advances and funding from the NCI and Fred Hutch 2/2
Our latest, in Science Advances: In vivo CRISPR screen revealed sgRNAs that switch chemosensitive SCLC PDXs to become resistant.We validated KEAP1 as key hit and found KEAP1 alterations in IMpower133 trial, where active NRF2 links to reduced survival in chemo arm www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/2
Postdoc salaries at FH follow a WA state law for exempt employees - big jumps in salary coming this jan 2025 and in 2 years
The MacPherson lab at Fred Hutch is hiring a postdoc to study the biology of small cell lung cancer. We employ in vivo models, genetic screens and genomic approaches to understand + therapeutically target subsets of SCLC. $78K salary ⬆️ to >$90K after 2 yrs

Very cool Trudy and Abbie, exciting to model and understand origins of this SCLC subset!
You, too, Amy, thanks!
Hello Bluesky! I’m a Professor at Fred Hutch and our lab studies the biology of small cell lung cancer. Using mouse and PDX models, cell-based and in vivo genetic screens, and genomic approaches, we seek to understand biologically distinct subsets of SCLC and their therapeutic vulnerabilities.
