If you're at #ASBMB25, head over to Eddie's poster to hear about his cool work on lipid catabolic enzymes!
I'm excited to present my work on the deorphanization of atypical lipid catabolic enzymes at #ASBMB25 on Monday April 14th. Please come to W179 to hear my flash-talk at 9:30AM and hang out with me at poster #350! #lipidtime

Looking at human kidney cancer, we profiled nutrient levels in the tumor environment and found they are similar to nutrient levels in healthy kidney tissue, suggesting tumors must work within constraints of nutrients available rather than change nutrient environment. elifesciences.org/articles/95652
Metabolite profiling of human renal cell carcinoma reveals tissue-origin dominance in nutrient availability
Assessing metabolites in renal cell carcinoma and kidney tissue suggests cancers adapt rather than dictate nutrient availability.

Hi Bluesky! We will introduce ourselves to this community by highlighting some papers from this past year. And also some lab fun along the way! Stay tuned! Look forward to interacting with you all!
