Congrats as well to @RJDLab and @thomaspmathews for a huge grant to continue to build the outstanding metabolomics facility in @CRI_UTSW. Ralph has more mass spectrometers than anyone I know!
Great day for CRI research: @SJMorrison_ received $4.36M to study neural regulation of childhood cancers & @RJDLab received $2.6M for our Metabolomics core toward advanced methodologies in #cancer #metabolism. #relentlessdiscovery @CPRITTexas

Min Zhu et al. show that somatic mutations in PKD1 (POLYCYSTIN1) are selected for in chronically damaged livers because they promote hepatocyte clone fitness without driving carcinogenesis. This shows that some somatic mutations are beneficial. (1/8) cell.com/cell-metabolism/abs…

Great to see CRI researcher @DrDrNatasha’s work highlighted as she & @Zhu_Lab continue to dig into causes of biliary atresia — a rare pediatric liver disease that affects ~1 in 12,000 U.S. infants. #womeninSTEM #relentlessdiscovery
Natasha Corbitt, M.D., a pediatric surgeon and researcher here at UTSW, is working to change the treatment of biliary atresia. Read how this rare pediatric disease causes problems for liver function. @childrens utswmed.org/medblog/biliary-…
