Excited to announce the Yang lab officially opens at @Columbia University. We are interested in developing innovative single cell recording technologies to study tumor evolution and cancer plasticity. We are hiring motivated postdocs & students, please RT dianyanglab.com/

The Dian Yang Lab at Columbia University

The Dian Yang lab at Columbia University studies tumor evolution by combining molecular recording technologies, cancer mouse models, and single cell genomics.

Out today, with @LabJacks, @isidrolauscher, @fran_muyas, we used new mouse models of spontaneous lung and colon cancer to delineate a mechanism for why many patients with DNA mismatch repair deficient (MMRd) tumors may not respond to immunotherapy 🧵1/11 nature.com/articles/s41588-0…

Mismatch repair deficiency is not sufficient to elicit tumor immunogenicity

Nature Genetics - Mouse models of lung and colorectal cancer with sporadic DNA mismatch repair deficiency clarify that the intratumor heterogeneity and clonal architecture rather than tumor...

Excited to share our new publication in @NatureBiotech nature.com/articles/s41587-0… Here, we introduce a genetically engineered mouse model that enables prime editing in vivo! We're excited about the system's potential for rapid and precise modeling of essentially any cancer mutation!

Ludwig @MIT Co-director Tyler Jacks spoke at #AACR2023 about the use of mouse models of cancer—further engineered to express cancer antigens or accumulate mutations in cancer cells—as a tool for nuanced and comprehensive study of anti-tumor immune responses.
