Absolutely wonderful to see this study from @PeterMacRes and @MonashUni published in PNAS
Peter Mac's @JohnstoneRicky and @MonashUni researchers have designed a single drug that delivers a lethal ‘one-two’ punch to several types of #bloodcancer in preclinical studies and could lead to improved treatments. Read the full story: https://t.co/G6jY90EyIl

Absolutely rapt to have this paper published in PNAS. Great to collaborate with @JakeShortt3 and Phil Thompson from @MonashUni on this project with more exciting stuff to come! Thanks to all @PeterMacRes @PeterMacCC for continued support.
Rationally designed chimeric PI3K-BET bromodomain inhibitors elicit curative responses in MYC-driven lymphoma | PNAS https://t.co/CTYQQQiwf5 Proud of our collaborative effort. Great working @SCSMonash with @JohnstoneRicky and @MIPS_Australia. Thanks to @NFMRI for the support.

Thanks for posting this very exciting data @DanilovLab. Targeting aberrant transcription in oncology…. A very appealing concept for the @JohnstoneLab and others that’s for sure.
CDK9 is an important target in NHL. In heavily-pretreated DLBCL pts including many post CAR-T, ORR/CR 50%/20% and some are durable. Excited to share clinical data on the molecule our lab and Australian colleagues helped advance into trials #ICML17 @JohnstoneRicky @DrAnasYounes

So proud to see @Stephintje transition from a postdoc in the @JohnstoneLab to an independent position @WEHI_research and now Snow Fellow…. Great things to come 4 sure! Kudos to @SnowMedical for awesome support of Australian science 👏 @PeterMacRes
WEHI's @Stephintje is one of three Australian researchers to receive an $8m Fellowship from @SnowMedical. He will use the Fellowship to study the cell’s messenger factory, RNAPII, to find new treatment options for cancers such as leukaemia. https://t.co/BGwfsDQiU7

Excited to see our work published in @CellCellPress today. Massive thanks to @GardiniLab, @JohnstoneLab and our other collaborators for this team effort and kudos to @Stephintje for his vision and drive. @PeterMacRes
In the latest issue! The balance between kinase and phosphatase activity provides a control point for gene expression that can be exploited to inhibit tumorigenesis #cancerresearch
