It was an incredible experience presenting at #AACR25. Thank you to my mentor @mishabeltran and to @PCF_Science and @CDMRP for their support. Grateful to DFCI for sharing!
At #AACR25, @DanaFarber researcher @mkbakht shares multi-omic insights into prostate cancer: PSMA suppression & heterogeneity in liver metastases reveal potentially targetable epigenetic & metabolomic changes. #CancerResearch #ProstateCancer

🚨Aiming High: PSMA Expression in Treatment-naïve #prostatecancer 👏@mkbakht & @mishabeltran provide editorial comments on our latest publication in @EUplatinum "Given that PSMA PET scans are now routinely performed in newly diagnosed patients, this study is increasingly relevant, as use of PSMA data from these scans might provide additional insights into tumor biology." @DanaFarber_GU @PCFnews @PCF_Science @UclaUrology @RobertReiterMD @CalaisJeremie @TheBoutrosLab 🔗shorturl.at/EaIYn

Congratulations @ASGoldstein6 and team! Honored to discuss your work in this News & views @NatureCellBio with @mkbakht @DanaFarber rdcu.be/dsJN3
This means so much to me. The first truly new direction I took as a professor. It began in 2017 when my first student Preston Crowell figured out how to metabolically profile basal and luminal cells. It's grown into the paper I'm most proud of in my career nature.com/articles/s41556-0…
