For my new followers! Focal deletions of noncoding regions in cancer genomes can have unexpected consequences. Out now in @bloodjournal.bsky.social, we’ve discovered a novel mechanism of oncogene activation whereby focal deletion of a ‘promoter tether’ leads to aberrant expression of IRX3 in T-ALL.👇

Starting off my bluesky journey by sharing my paper published this week: CD21 targeted CAR-T cells for the treatment of T-ALL.
The result of many years of work from many people. Funded by #CRUK #UKRI MRC and #GOSHCC

Preclinical development of anti-CD21 chimeric antigen receptor T cells to treat T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Fratricide-resistant anti-CD21 CAR-T cells are effective in preclinical models of T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).

Check out our new pre-print!

Exciting times ahead for Menin biology and targeting epigenetics regulators in AML.

Congratulations to all involved!

Plugging our new paper on the new platform: “Unravelling mutational signatures with plasma circulating tumour DNA”
Peter Mac researchers unveil MisMatchFinder, a blood test that profiles cancer by analysing DNA changes, helping to personalise treatment faster & without invasive biopsies.

Read about this breakthrough in @naturecomms.bsky.social, today's Herald Sun or here: www.petermac.org/about-us/new...

A social media platform where likeminded individuals (not trolls or imbeciles) interact to share their latest ideas, discoveries and news - Looking forward to this!

Hey scientists/academics👋, I’m moving over. Looking to follow researchers working on gene regulation, epigenetics, lineage tracing, non-coding mutations, single cell techniques, and drug resistance in cancer - let’s follow each other 😄
