The lymphoma microenvironment stops BH3-mimetics working.
In vitro/vivo/silico, we find inhibition of NFκB makes BH3-mimetics great again.🧵

New paper led by @ejayawant.bsky.social 🎉
We review:
- how computational biology is helping us understand lymphoma,
- how machine learning and cell simulations make sense of vast amounts of data,
- how models can personalise treatments to each person with lymphoma.

🔬 A postdoc in numbers (and life beyond the lab)
As I wrap up my postdoc with @mitchell.science at @bsmsmedschool.bsky.social, I've been reflecting on everything that’s changed since I started in 2021. A lot can happen in a few years…
