Would you bend over to pick up a nickel? Relative to the median US net worth of $192,900, the equivalent of a nickel to Elon Musk is about $90,000. Would Elon Musk bend over to pick up a bag of $90,000?

In these cancers, the single driving oncoprotein has DNA-binding and prion-like capabilities. The epigenetic reprogramming involves changes in chromatin structure, condensation, accessibility, & recruited co-factors. The DNA gets rewoven by the oncoprotein; still lots to learn

Analysis of any sequencing data should be done independently by at least 4 people (the more the better, kind of like an “n”) in order to reach any conclusion
What unpopular academia opinion would get you in this situation?

Excited to share that my first (co-)first author was published today! Congrats to the team especially my dedicated mentors @ConanKinsey @MaxTheSFCat I’m so grateful to be a part of @huntsmancancer where we can do translational work like this to continue our fight against cancer!
.@mark_silvis, @DilruSilva, @conankinsey, @MaxTheSFCat et al. @huntsmancancer show that inhibition of CDK4/6 and lysosome function overcomes c-MYC–mediated cell cycle entry in the face of trametinib and chloroquine co-treatment in #PancreaticCancer. bit.ly/3Y81DNy

My science wish for 2023 (and beyond)… a bench-top mass spectrometer that can replace western blots
