Organoids from almost any type of carcinoma have been developed, but non-epithelial cancers lagged behind - until now! Here is our paper developing patient-derived sarcoma organoids from 110+ samples, 20+ types of sarcomas, rare bone and soft tissue...

✨Very happy to share that we have a new paper published this morning that expands our high throughput organoid screening platform to a type of heterogenous, benign tumors called on cutaneous neurofibromas (cNFs). You can find it here:...

In my experience there are two types of scientists. Those that freely present unpublished data with little to no reservation and those who don’t. Mandated policies rarely make a difference as the divide is large.

Apropos of nothing, here is your periodic reminder to avoid posting very specific details of what annoys you as a grant reviewer because it's NIH grant review season so it's obviously not likely a general example and people can figure things out

The bigger issue is that there is not enough $ to fund all the equally outstanding grant proposals out there. Naming reviewers wont change that. Increasing research funding needs to remain a bipartisan national priority. And the pandemic certainly put a strain on that.
