Absolutely rapt to have this paper published in PNAS. Great to collaborate with @JakeShortt3 and Phil Thompson from @MonashUni on this project with more exciting stuff to come! Thanks to all @PeterMacRes @PeterMacCC for continued support.
Rationally designed chimeric PI3K-BET bromodomain inhibitors elicit curative responses in MYC-driven lymphoma | PNAS pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pna… Proud of our collaborative effort. Great working @SCSMonash with @JohnstoneRicky and @MIPS_Australia. Thanks to @NFMRI for the support.

The 2023 @VCCCAlliance Postdoc Symposium is about to kick off. We’re all excited for a jam-packed day of cancer research presentation from up-and-coming experts across Melbourne and beyond #VCCCpostdoc23
Registrations open now !!

Thanks for posting this very exciting data @DanilovLab. Targeting aberrant transcription in oncology…. A very appealing concept for the @JohnstoneLab and others that’s for sure.
CDK9 is an important target in NHL. In heavily-pretreated DLBCL pts including many post CAR-T, ORR/CR 50%/20% and some are durable. Excited to share clinical data on the molecule our lab and Australian colleagues helped advance into trials #ICML17 @JohnstoneRicky @DrAnasYounes

The Vervoort lab can now be found online! Please check out the lab at: vervoortlab.com and wehi.edu.au/people/stephin-v… for the latest news, fun stuff and job opportunities. We are looking for talented postdocs with interest in transcriptional regulation!

So proud to see @Stephintje transition from a postdoc in the @JohnstoneLab to an independent position @WEHI_research and now Snow Fellow…. Great things to come 4 sure! Kudos to @SnowMedical for awesome support of Australian science 👏 @PeterMacRes
WEHI's @Stephintje is one of three Australian researchers to receive an $8m Fellowship from @SnowMedical. He will use the Fellowship to study the cell’s messenger factory, RNAPII, to find new treatment options for cancers such as leukaemia.

Excited to see our work published in @CellCellPress today. Massive thanks to @GardiniLab, @JohnstoneLab and our other collaborators for this team effort and kudos to @Stephintje for his vision and drive. @PeterMacRes
In the latest issue! The balance between kinase and phosphatase activity provides a control point for gene expression that can be exploited to inhibit tumorigenesis

Delighted to see our paper from @JohnstoneLab @PeterMacRes led by @SimonJHogg_PhD & @Stephintje out today. With our wonderful collaborators we discover new ways to consider histone dynamics and transcription with therapeutic implications in cancer. authors.elsevier.com/a/1d5-9…

Very exciting email to wake up to!! Extraordinarily honoured to have received a @KeystoneSymp travel scholarship to attend the Tumour Metabolism meeting in Banff, Canada. Thank you to the organisers for this incredible opportunity!
