I am thrilled to receive the @NIHDirector’s New Innovator DP2 Award! With this $2.5 million in funding, we will turn off every kinase in the human genome and accelerate breast cancer drug discovery. Join us, we are recruiting at https://t.co/DY2BtorbC4!

We study how kinases regulate breast cancer growth and drug response. Kinases control nearly all aspects of human biology and are the largest druggable protein class in cancer. We manipulate kinases...

Life is too short to worry about stupid things. Have fun. Fall in love. Regret nothing, and don't let people bring you down. Study, think, create, and grow. Teach yourself and teach others. 🧠

We woke up today to a new era in breast cancer treatment. I have never been more proud or grateful to be part of a transformative moment in cancer research. Most importantly, I look forward to seeing the new hope this brings for patients with cancer. #ASCO22

Hospitalizations are increasing as Omicron cases reach record highs in NYC and all across the country. But as I noticed on my recent ER shifts, take a look at who needs admission to the hospital for severe Covid? 👇 TL;DR It’s the unvaccinated.
I’ve seen a lot of Covid in the ER recently. With so many people getting infected recently, some folks may wonder what’s the point of getting vaccinated at all? And is there really any value to a booster dose if I’ve had two Pfizer/Moderna or a shot of J&J? My observations: 🧵

Thanks my mentor Howard Scher, co-authors and PCF YIA funding from @PCFnews @soulehoward1. Took a few years but finally my first clinical study is out! The Effect of Corticosteroids on Prostate Cancer Outcome Following Treatment with Enzalutamide.

The vaccination rates in states with mandates vs those without (it isn't just the mandates, but the difference is striking) by @nytgraphics @billmarshnyt @albertsun

The T cell response to mRNA vaccination is extraordinarily robust & durable, especially as determined by draining lymph nodes. That's what helping to prevent severe disease, irrespective of variants (including Omicron) https://t.co/xgHbRI1ZDs

Omicron resulting in less severe illness The latest roundup of data from this preprint with South Africa data and from Denmark https://t.co/sdJUz5w6vU by @mroliverbarnes @jburnmurdoch @rmilneNordic 1. Less hospital admission in South Africa
A/The big unknown for Omicron is the magnitude of reduction in illness severity compared with Delta and prior variants. The South African preprint data today says 70%, adjusted. In a population with high Covid exposure, https://t.co/CSV9HPO4vm Much more still to learn on this....

You know it's a good day in the pandemic when: —The 1st anti-Covid pill is cleared —More indications that Omicron is associated with less severe illness and tends to come down from its big surge as quickly as it ascends —The 1st pan-coronavirus vaccine is ready for Phase 2 trials

Another superb @SubstackInc review by @EricTopol; this on Paxlovid, Pfizer's new oral antiviral. Given its preserved efficacy vs. Omicron & fact that it's likely to ⬇infectivity as well as severe illness, it's crucial to expedite approval & distribution. https://t.co/GDzVzLiiMF

Davide Corti has some very interesting data for neutralization drop against Omicron that includes Sputnik V and SinoPharm (BBIBP-CorV, inactivated vaccine). https://t.co/D7gwmVaRd1
