Really pleased to present the findings from our most recent work - a project driven by @sirlianniko.bsky.social, which describes how germ cell tumours can be sensitized to chemotherapy. I’m grateful to our many collaborators from across the UK and to the funding bodies that supported this work

National Egg Day celebrates the humble breakfast egg. But at the Marine Biological Laboratory, we’re taking a different spin and highlighting the eggs that help scientists better understand life itself.

🚨 New work from the Amanda Loehr and Bob Weiss at Cornell! Circulating miRNAs that can detect germ cell tumors in humans are also present in a mouse model of these tumors (they're even detectable in pregnant mice carrying offspring that later develop a tumor‼️) rdcu.be/d8Y1K

Yeesh. This earns you a fail in third year genetics if you think that sex has been determined at fertilization.
