When I was a graduate student the process of DNA de-methylation was a complete mystery. Until Dr. Anjana Rao described for the first time how the TET enzymes mediate the process. It was amazing to meet one of my scientific heroes this week.

Yesterday I was invited by the graduate students to talk about my career path. Did not expect to have so much fun digging into my PhD and postdoc and eventually some undergraduate treasures: Perkinsus atlanticus was my first organism of interest and how I became fascinated with nucleus.

We are starting to understand the differences between TET2 and DNMT3A mutations at the molecular level and with single cell resolution. Incredible multiomic tour de force by @wazimismail.bsky.social , Jenna Fernandez, @moritzbinder.bsky.social , Mrinal Patnaik and many more.
Great presentation by MD/PhD student Mihai Dumbrava to showcase our NIH/Mayo Ovarian SPORE pilot project to understand the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in ovarian cancer. #LabFunEpi #OvarianCancer
