Very excited to share our latest work now out in @ScienceTM on targeting #lipidmetabolism in #glioblastoma
Great team effort led by @katharinaeyme @ale__samma with other past/present lab members and our collaborators at @Yumanitytx and @UCLA

Our new paper shows that targeting the enzyme SCD in breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) disrupts lipid metabolism and boosts anti-tumor immunity! This could pave the way for new therapies for this devastating disease. #BCBM #breastcancer nature.com/articles/s42003-0ā¦
Yet another fantastic collaboration with the Bensinger Lab @UCLA, led by @ale__samma! Grateful to everyone who contributed to this work and to our funding supporters who made it possible š #Collaboration #Research @MGHNeurology

Reunion with my mentorsā¦ full circle back to Neuro-oncology @BadRlab @TannousLab @NeuroOnc #SNO2023 ā at Vancouver, British Columbia
Made it to @neuroonc #sno2023 meeting! Very much looking forward for the next 3 days ahead #btsm #curebraincancer
For 50 years @theABTA has been supporting #braincancer patients, caregivers, and researchers. They had a tremendous impact on my career as a researcher. Please consider supporting their mission. Learn more at: MeetHopeHeadOn.org #MeetHopeHeadOn #BTSM #BrainTumorAwareness
My promotion to Associate Professor of #Neurology at #Harvard Medical School @MGHNeurology @MGH_RI @MGHNeuroOnc is now official. I owe this to the superb mentors and wonderful scientists I had the privilege to work with over the years.
A big thank you to my family for their support, to those who funded our research, to #braintumors #GBM patients who give us the drive and motivation every day, and to the referees who generously accepted to write my letters.
