Check out our new preprint on an epigenetic resistance mechanism to PI3 kinase inhibition in AML and a new combination therapy with an EZH1/2 inhibitor that depletes leukemic stem cells! Great effort by @thehematopoet and the whole team
So excited to share a pre-print of my thesis work! Check it out to see how we can leverage an epigenetic resistance mechanism to PI3K inhibitors to target leukemic stem cells!! (Spoiler alert: PRC2 is involved!) Really proud of this work conducted with @gritsmanlab.bsky.social

So proud of Team Stemmy! Interdisciplinary collabs are the way to make a difference for preventing and curing cancer. @pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social @uwaterloo.ca
Three Waterloo grads — Isabella Di Biasio, Veronika Sustrova and Katarina Makivic — teamed up to automate blood stem cell analysis using ML and a custom scripting language. Their tool, developed with Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, aims to speed up cancer research.

This month has been a whirlwind. I am happy to announce I am the newest Scientist @pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social

The Xie lab 🧪will focus on understanding how inflammatory and metabolic stress promote aging and cancer risk in human🩸hematopoietic stem cells and preventative interventions.

@aircanada.bsky.social Please get your act together. I will miss the plenary session of #AACR2025 and learn about groundbreaking cancer research because my flight got canceled 20 minutes before boarding. Unexpected mechanical failure. Last month too. That’s an awful trend.

What follows will include some generalizations based on population averages of what I have experienced over the course of my career. There are, of course, exceptions in every group who are substantially more to one extreme or the other.

important study of 🩸#stemcells in aging mice. huge translational opportunities for decreasing cancer risk if we can uncover the mechanisms underlying HSC clonal dynamics differences from humans. Kudos to @goodell-lab.bsky.social
