We are excited that our paper characterizing a new mouse model of hormone receptor positive breast cancer is now published in @AJPathology. Happy to share this line with the breast cancer research community and stem cell biologists.

Congratulations to Guillermo on his successful thesis defense! He is the first PhD student in the Jones Lab. Proud mentor!
After attending a fantastic Gordon Research Conference on lymphatics last week, I am grateful that this week my lab was officially awarded an exploratory grant from the Department of Defense to study how to repair damaged lymphatic vessels. #lymphedema
Another fantastic Lymphatics @GordonConf organized by @BenjaminHogan13 and Hong Chen. Thrilled to watch Guillermo's poster flash talk. It was an honor for me to give an oral presentation and co-lead the power hour with @KarinaYaniv and Hasina Outtz Reed. Excited for 2026!
Happy to see our review published in @trendscancer! It was a fantastic experience collaborating with @theLundLab @katie_ventre @InesDelclaux on this timely review, which focuses on the role of lymph nodes in anti-tumor immunity.
Out today in @trendscancer! Writing with @InesDelclaux @theLundLab @DJonesLab on our favorite topics: the tumor-draining lymph node in immune surveillance, why understanding the tdLN is important, and lymph node metastasis as an agent of chaos

Lei, Pereira, @PaderaLab, @beyazlab et al. reveal that a subpopulation of #BreastCancer cells in the lymph node is marked by MHC-II expression in the absence of costimulatory molecules, which causes the expansion of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells. bit.ly/46dGZk1
An incredible past few days! Congratulations to Mervin, Kavya (masters), Anna (undergrad) and Safiyah (post-bac) on finishing your programs. I’m grateful to have been your mentor. I look forward to the amazing things you will accomplish! @BUMedicine
