This paper took the scenic route to publication: paused for maternity leave, rerouted by other work priorities, and finally dusted off like a forgotten treasure in the attic when my brilliant student Amy came on board.
The role of environmentally mediated drug resistance in facilitating the spatial distribution of residual disease
Communications Biology - Mechanistic modelling of tumour-stroma crosstalk sheds light on how targeted drug dynamics and microenvironmental heterogeneity shape residual disease through distinct...

Why academia is sleepwalking into self-destruction. My editorial @brain1878.bsky.social If you agree with the sentiments please repost. It's important for all our sakes to stop the madness

It's creepy at best. Terrifying at worst.
Please cross the road and walk ahead. Thanks 😊
