Very happy and grateful for being awarded the F99/K00 award to continue studying circRNAs in melanoma metastasis 🥳 @KarrethLab @CancerBiol_PhD @theNCI @USouthFlorida

From solving math puzzles in third grade to developing new therapies for HPV-related cancers, Jennifer Binning, PhD (@JenBinning) has always loved a challenge. Today, she combines her passion for research with a drive to make a difference in oncology. At Moffitt, she leads

🎓Congrats to Thomas Veith, PhD @thomasaveith on the successful defense of his dissertation entitled, "Karyotype-Driven Tumor Dynamics: Understanding Cancer Evolution Through Copy Number Alterations and Selective Pressures". Tommy was mentored by @EinsteinCross during his PhD.👏🏼

🎓 Congratulations to Srishti Singh, PhD @srishti503 on the successful defense of her doctoral dissertation entitled, “Protein engineering solutions for breast cancer immunotherapy and diagnosis". Srishti was mentored by @vcluca1 during her PhD. Well done!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

🎓 Congratulations to Malgorzata (Gosia) Weh, PhD on the successful defense of her doctoral dissertation entitled, “The Only Constant is Change: the Role of Genetic Diversification in Cancer and Beyond”. Gosia was mentored by David Basanta and @AndriyMarusyk during her PhD.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

On #ClinicalTrialsDay, we celebrate Moffitt’s exceptional clinical research team and their vital role in advancing cancer care. Every breakthrough treatment we have today is built on the results of past clinical trials and the dedication of researchers who make them possible.

Today David Basanta lab member Gosia Weh defends her @CancerBiol_PhD on, The Only Constant is Change: the Role of Genetic Diversification in Cancer and Beyond. Here David introduces the external examiner @CancerConnector. Gosia starts with the moth example of evolution @mathonco

🎓 Big congratulations to Julia Billington, PhD @JuliaBCancerSci on the successful defense of her doctoral dissertation entitled, “An FGFR-p53 Developmental Signaling Axis Drives Salivary Cancer Progression”. Julia was mentored by @AmelioLab during her PhD. Well done Julia! 👏🏼

Join Ranjini Bhattacharya (@RanjiniBhattac2) at #AACR25 as she explains how evolutionary game theory reveals the hidden cost of VEGF overexpression in tumor and why combining anti-angiogenics with GLUT inhibitors could be a game-changer. Read more: https://t.co/hKGtLzetNe

How do adaptable cancer cells outsmart treatment? At #AACR25 Alicia Bjornberg, a PhD candidate, explores how cancer cells adapt to survive therapy and why stopping that adaptability could lead to to better outcomes. Read more: https://t.co/PRhSpFOE3Q #MoffittAACR25

Thank you to Kaizhen Wang, of @MoffittNews, for stopping by during #AACR25 to chat about the association between the MYBL2 transcription factor and melanoma! Head to our site to see more exclusive @AACR insights. #melsm #oncology https://t.co/3nJiUIyuW5

Live from #AACR25: Kaizhen Wang (@Kaizhen20) from the @KarrethLab discusses how MYBL2 drives melanoma through a surprising mechanism, non-canonical RNA binding. This newly uncovered function reveals how MYBL2 reshapes gene regulation and promotes tumor growth, offering fresh

While at #AACR25, Kaizhen Wang (@Kaizhen20) from the @KarrethLab shares new insights on melanoma progression, revealing how non-canonical RNA binding by the MYBL2 transcription factor plays a key role in driving the disease. Read more: https://t.co/ioPT8POVrf #MoffittAACR25

At yesterday's opening ceremony, we asked the cancer community to stand together to make their voices heard in support of innovative cancer science and medicine. #CancerResearchSavesLives® #AACR25

Join Alicia Bjornberg, a PhD candidate, during the #AACR25 poster session as she shares how cancer cells adapt to survive therapy and why stopping that adaptability could lead to better outcomes. Read more: https://t.co/woFClK8aYT #MoffittAACR25
