A nice follow-up to our recent @Nature paper (@BarbMarte). Nature has published a News & Views piece discussing the work: “The secret life of a cell-cycle gatekeeper of cancer.” Very proud of the team. Interested to hear where these concepts go next. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Peter Mac researchers from @shomgoel's lab have uncovered why breast cancer treatment stops working for some patients. Published in @Nature, the discovery could help develop new treatment combinations that work for longer and improve outcomes. More: petermac.org/about-us/news-a…

Congratulations @AprilCWatt on a great talk at @SABCSSanAntonio. Provided the first real explanation of why CDK4/6 inhibitors and endocrine therapy work together, with major implications for understanding resistance and therapy development.

Happy to share our new study describing the effects of CDK2 inhibition in solid cancers. It has been a fun and stimulating collaboration with @incyclixbio and fantastic to work with INX-315, their selective and potent CDK2 inhibitor. doi.org/10.1158/2159-8290.CD……

Here's our perspective on targeting CDK4/6, just published in Nature Reviews Cancer @NatureRevCancer @PeterMacRes @UniMelbMDHS @SnowMedical. CDK4/6i's have transformed breast cancer therapy, but we have still only realised a fraction of their potential! rdcu.be/cJhFx

Check out our latest review on CDK4/6i in HR+ #breastcancer, published with @SpringerNature in @BCRJournal. We cover research on mechanisms of action beyond cytostasis, summarize current knowledge on acquired resistance, and more… @shomgoel rdcu.be/cIkE0

Congratulations @shomgoel ! Looking forward to all the exciting research the team will be able to embark on
Thank you to @SnowMedical and the visionary Snow family for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I am honoured to be named a Snow Fellow and know that this will be life changing for me and my team. Congratulations also to @meleckmas and @DrMarinaPajic!

In #breastcancer, CDK4/6i stimulates AP-1 to activate classical super-enhancers that drive luminal differentiation & apoptotic evasion, as well as enhancers overlying endogenous retroviral elements that are enriched for proximity to IFN-driven genes: nature.com/articles/s43018-0…
