In the year of our lord 2023, why are people still using Panc02 cells in their pancreatic cancer research!!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️

One word that I need to keep in my thoughts…PERSEVERANCE. Received a close but not fundable R01 score today, a large pile of grants to still review, and a Nov R01 resubmission to finish.

Further, we found tomatidine induces ferroptosis-mediated cell death in pancreatic cancer cells

We found that Tomatidine inhibits pancreatic tumor growth and enhances gemcitabine chemosensitivity. Also, tomatidine reduces binding of ATF4 with downstream promoter elements

Very excited to announce publication of a new research article in iScience from the lab and @Pelotonia funded MCDB grad student @Debi_Mukh titled, “Tomatidine targets ATF4-dependent signaling and induces ferroptosis to limit pancreatic cancer progression”

Definitely ready for a vacation. Just submitted my 3rd NIH R01 as PD/PI this cycle. Thankful for all the help from my lab and collaborators.
Never submitting that many again in one cycle!

Sat on my first NIH study section. Exhausted, but a very rewarding experience. Cherry Blossoms in full bloom and made a pit stop before heading to the airport.

Sorry to miss out and catch up with everyone at SITC, but I was partaking in another one of my passions. Had a lot of fun at a curling tournament up in Fort Wayne this weekend. Team I skip went 2-2 and we had a blast.

Due to everyone traveling and going home for the semester, we had to have an early lab holiday dinner. Crazy how much the lab has grown. Proud of all the work they are doing!

Huge congratulations to @Debi_Mukh in the laboratory who was recently awarded a highly competitive @Pelotonia graduate student fellowship for her research on pancreatic cancer. Well-earned and deserved!! @OSUCCC_James @OSUWexMed @OhioStatePIIO

The 150th Open is being played at St. Andrews this week. I got to visit in 2017 on my honeymoon. Awesome experience to check off my bucket list. We were lucky, course is closed for golf on Sundays and anyone can walk course.
