Incredibly proud of my husband @jaehyukchoimd on this amazing research discovery published in @Nature today. A potential way to supercharge T cell therapy that may lead to even better cures for cancer. 🙏
T cell lymphoma mutations power adoptive T cell therapies! Excited to see this published! A true collaboration with friend and colleague @koleroybal and our students @jay__daniels and #julie_garcia.

Jimmy Buffett was an icon. We were very sad to hear of his passing from Merkel cell carcinoma. What gives us hope? Our great researchers like @jaehyukchoimd, who is studying how to treat this rare, aggressive skin cancer. @ABCNews @MaryKekatos abcnews.go.com/Health/merkel…
