Thank you so much @CornellBME @CUbmes for organizing! I enjoyed the opportunity to share our work with the @CancerCornell community and welcoming the incoming class of PhD students!
@CoulterRalston and @ndsempertegui won poster prizes at today’s @CornellBME program for incoming PhD students, but the posters and presentations were uniformly excellent.

Ph.D. student Shola Onissema-Karimu @_shoolaa studies how drugs & stem cells affect bone during cancer treatment and hopes to mentor future scientists to make informed decisions about their career choices. @CornellBME @CornellEng @Cornell @fischbcl17

Definitely had a great time showing everyone around the @FischbachLab! I really appreciate the support from the @BCCRoc for my work on breast cancer bone metastasis 🦴🙏🏼!
Cancer survivors from @BCCRoc heard first hand from our own @ndsempertegui how their funding supports her important work on bone metastasis - she clearly enjoyed the opportunity! Thanks @bobriter for organizing! @CornellBME

Fischbach Lab craft night has never smelled so good! Making candles was a great exercise to put our lab basics to the test 🧑🔬🕯️

Thrilled to share that @CornellBME Siyoung Choi and @Matt_AWhit's paper in Nature BME @natBME titled "Bone-matrix mineralization dampens integrin-mediated mechanosignalling and metastatic progression in breast cancer" is now published rdcu.be/diKuH!

Heterogeneity of cancer is linked to its physical properties! Glad to see @GarrettBeeghly and @adshimpi1 @CornellBME review published. With contributions from our own @NCIPhySci patient advocate @bobriter
Heterogeneity is a critical barrier to treating cancer. In this Review, @fischbcl17 et al discuss the biological and physical sources of heterogeneity across length scales and how engineering strategies can improve our understanding of these phenomena.

Congrats to Dr. @MattLTan on a fantastic defense! Now it's time to celebrate with cake inspired by his beautiful microscopy images (baked by our own @R_E_Stephenson)! #FischbachLab4Ever 🐠
Proudly presenting Dr @MattLTan - what a treat listening to his presentation about metabolic regulation of tumor invasion! @FischbachLab @CornellBME will miss him a lot!!!

How many PhD students does it take to carve a pumpkin? We found out by celebrating Halloween together as a lab! See the video of our designs (spooky and otherwise) below 🎃

Debuting our first "official" group photo since I joined the lab... thanks COVID... but I'm glad to be surrounded by such amazing and talented individuals!

Thrilled to welcome Dr. Lu Ling to our lab this week as a new Postdoctoral Fellow! Lu did outstanding PhD research with @fischbcl17 @CornellBME on stromal remodeling of matrix in breast cancer. Excited to have her on our team!

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

No doubt next year will be an exciting one with this thoughtful, creative, inspiring, and resilient group of @CornellBME students and post docs. Happy holidays from our lab to yours!

A titan of our times. A hero for equality and women’s rights. We are so worse off without her in this world.
BREAKING: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who charted a course for women’s rights at the U.S. Supreme Court and became a legal, cultural and feminist icon, has died from complications from cancer. She was 87.
