Meet our PhD student Rebecca! This year, she beat cancer AND published her first 1st-author paper on how hypoxia induces complement signaling in GBM, alters macrophage polarization, and how the C3-C3AR1 axis can be therapeutically targeted in GBM models. Check it out! insight.jci.org/articles/vie...

Inspired by the other amazing starter packs - here's one for cancer researchers! I tried to make this broad - from immunology to genomics to cell biology and so much more.. This list also includes organizations & institutes supporting cancer researchers 🧪🔬⚕️🩺 Hope its useful! go.bsky.app/FEoaJMc
