Overwhelmed with emotion to learn that our incredibly talented and resilient team earned a 1% score on our resubmitted #R01 @NCICancerBio, after many rejections. We will study how CAF hypoxia signaling regulates immune responses in #PancreaticCancer #EndCancer @MDAndersonNews

GOOD NEWS: Promotion to Associate Professor, @MDAndersonNews starting Sept. 1. Now I get to continue the fight to #endcancer and help more patients, students, residents, fellows, and fellow faculty... at least for another seven more years.

I received a magnificent #birthday gift today (in addition to my lab putting balloons in my office)—our NOA! I’d like to use this shameless plug for attention to express my gratitude to #medtwitter for helping this #newPI after years of struggling. A thread 👇🏼1/14

Thank you to the talented @VAsonicmega for making our whole family’s trip! Our flight was initially cancelled and we got hastily rebooked in random seats, but our older daughter, who loves video games, basically won the lotto with her seatmate!

I colored my hair purple to show my commitment to #PancreaticCancer research and patient care, inspired by the great @ciacobu (always the innovator), my patients and patient advocacy groups like @lustgartenfdn @PanCAN

Celebrating our R01 with our lab and close collaborators! Smoked another wagyu brisket for the occasion and @colbertle and her husband made some killer old fashions

A year ago, I was celebrating my birthday with a #NOA for my first @NIH R01 grant. Today, I, along with thousands of other scientists, have closed their labs to #FlattentheCurve, knowing full well that their research may never recover

Our work on #mitochondrial fusion in #PancreaticCancer is on the cover of the latest @JCI_Insight! What started as an imaging curiosity has evolved into a potential new class of therapeutics against #PancreaticCancer. @Aiims1742 @MDAndersonNews How 'bout a Tweetorial? (1/)👇

My lab thanks #MedTwitter for the assist. Now that we are officially R01-funded, we get to keep working on awesome science in #PancreaticCancer, #hypoxia and #RadiationBiology (with an occasional Shabu Shabu lunch to celebrate accepted papers!). 14/14

Preparing to shut down the lab due to COVID-19. Very tough on young investigators. Fortunately we had an action plan from when our lab was shut down due to #HurricaneHarvey. My awesome lab handled everything calmly and professionally. @Aiims1742 #endcancer
