It’s the final day of our miniseries “It All Starts with Curiosity” for🧪World Laboratory Day+our last puzzle featuring a cropped image – almost as vibrant as Marc Chagall’s blue stained-glass🪟windows in Mainz. A little hint ➡️ georg-speyer-haus.de/forschung/fo... or ➡️ fci.health Good🍀luck guessing!

The answer to our last riddle (provided by @melanietichet.bsky.social of @loewe-fci.bsky.social 🙏): It's a melanoma tumor being reprogrammed by combination therapy: It becomes vulnerable as🆕blood vessels allow immune cells to enter+attack (tumor vessels:♦️,new vessels:🟢,immune cells:🧊,cell nuclei🔵).

Meet #MSKPostdoc Agnieszka Chryplewicz (@aga-chryplewicz.bsky.social) from the @sawyerslabmskcc.bsky.social! She studies how tumor-derived factors in prostate cancer shape immune responses to promote tumor growth and limit treatment success. #NPAW2025 🇵🇱
#KnowAboutMyScience: Tumors are complex ecosystems - not just cancer cells, but networks of interacting cell types. I study these relationships to uncover how cancer hijacks biology and help develop better therapies.
#CareerAdvice: Challenge yourself by changing environments- new institutions, cities, or countries. It's one of the best ways to grow as a scientist.
#BecomingAScientist: I once dreamed of being an investigative journalist. Now I chase mysteries at the cellular level, just as fascinating, only under a microscope.
#FunFuct: From sports to theater, my childhood was packed with activities. Each taught me something different, but together they shaped my creativity, discipline, and persistence- qualities I catty into science.
