The landscape of N6-methyladenosine in localized primary prostate cancer - Nature Genetics Transcriptome-wide m6A RNA methylation profile in 162 primary prostate tumors identifies m6A association with prognostic clinical features and disease aggression.

The latest research from the He Lab (www.hansenhelab.org) reinforces the importance of integrating epigenomic assays into clinical practice to enhance cancer patient care. Congratulations to the entire team!

A black-and-white photo shows a woman in a patterned dress with a lace collar and pearl necklace, sitting in a chair. The background features shelves with bottles and a wire basket, suggesting an early 20th-century setting, possibly a pharmacy or study.

On this day in 1879, Maud Menten was born in Port Lambton, Ontario.
In her work as a medical researcher, she became a leading expert in histochemistry and enzyme kinetics while fighting against sexism in her field.
Let's learn more about her life!

What's Happening Inside the NIH and NSF

A long post about what’s happening to the science funding agencies in the US and why. As mentioned, this one just kept getting longer even as I kept stripping curse words from it.

A lovely lunch of Arrowsmith lab and @thesgc.bsky.social friends celebrating Lunar New Year.

Looking forward to it!
