Congratulations to Bryan Roth, PhD on recent findings highlighting how his groundbreaking DREADDs receptors are having an impact on neuroscience therapeutics.

This amazing MOSAIC microscope combines 12 different imaging modalities into a single reconfigurable platform!

Congratulations to Dr. Channing Der who was interviewed about his groundbreaking research and its impact on the fight against pancreatic cancer.

This award recognizes outstanding excellence and dedication to teaching and medical student education.

In this role, Dr. Bryant will help connect cancer research with community partners and patients.

Research from the Song Lab, published in Neuron, and recently featured in national media, shows that a short-term high-fat diet disrupts memory processing by inducing hyperactivity in hippocampal neurons.

Dr. Robb successfully defended his PhD thesis, "Dynamic Regulation of Macropinocytosis Following RAS Pathway Inhibition in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma" under the direction of Dr. Kirsten Bryant.

Dr. Pratt succesfully defended his PhD thesis, "Molecular Programming of CD8 T cells in Infection and Cancer" under the mentorship of Dr. Justin Milner.

The study found that the vitamin D analog paricalcitol may help weaken the protective environment surrounding pancreatic tumors, potentially improving the effectiveness of chemotherapy.

The award recognizes her exceptional work in showing the contribution of DVL1 in the transcription of genes involved in various cellular functions, including those that drive triple-negative breast tumorigenesis and modulation of the tumor microenvironment.
