Interested in melanocyte and melanoma cell biology? The Judson-Torres lab is recruiting post-docs seeking an engaging training experience in a rich melanoma-focused community. @PCMR_Wiley @PASPCR1

Research new methods of early cancer detection - join the Deacon / Grossman / Judson-Torres skin cancer supergroup!

Looking to hire a lab technician @UofUDermatology @huntsmancancer. I took a similar position prior to pursuing an MD/PHD, great opportunity for someone looking to apply to graduate school, medical school or both! https://t.co/upqfA1AoxC search for PRN31492B

Aria Vaishnavi, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at Huntsman Cancer Institute is an awardee of the Lung Cancer Research Foundation 2021 Scientific Grant Program. She will be using this grant to better understand #lungcancer caused by inhaled #radon gas. https://t.co/zOqUxspr8c

Check out this neat article about a research collaboration between @PASPCR1 members @RobertJudsonTo1 @_RachelBelote @ShainLab https://t.co/1jUiYZ8GXT

Melanoma researchers at HCI have published a study that gives a new explanation of what causes moles to change into #melanoma. These findings pave the way for more research into how to reduce the risk of melanoma, delay development, and early detection: https://t.co/jZpjS20Tvp

Ever wonder how our moles recur, erupt & change if they are permanently growth arrested? See our report on the not-so-senescent nevus posted in eLife this AM. https://t.co/B0ZSjJuYMU. Congrats and thank you to our incredible teams @huntsmancancer and @UCSF

Thank you @ligaze for the interview and to @BettinaRyll for making the connection 😊 This is just one of a series of pieces that Andrew has done on scientists from the Global South! Go check his page for more 😄 and thank you for highlighting work done in Latin America!

Well, I guess it’s time for me to comment, since all of you have been blowing up Twitter! I am absolutely blown away by the outpouring of love and good wishes- you tweeps are just amazing, and I am so lucky to have you. A thread (of course):

This is such a well-done and needed atlas for the field that must have been difficult to pull off! Congratulations!!!Looking forward to use this data as a reference for our work!

This is such a beautiful study! It uses scRNA to dissect developmental and anatomic trajectories of melanocytes, and how this applies to melanoma heterogeneity. Also points out how melanocytes differ across model systems. Congrats!

Thank you @leonard_zon and Alicia McConnell for the insightful and thorough News & Views on @RachelBelote's recent single cell characterization of human melanocytes. We are glad for and honored by your comments.

I promise we are a whole lot more excited for this study than we may look :-) Thank you to everyone at HCI, Biohub and UCSF that made this happen.

Our report on the human melanocyte atlas out today in NCB. Congrats and Thank You @RachelBelote @spyros_darmanis and Dan Le for the fantastic collaboration!

I just got an email from someone in the US asking me for advice on how to obtain samples from Latin American countries without having to recognise sample providers w/ authorship in the resulting paper. Needless to say I was furious. Friends, please don't do this #colonialscience

We have two new lab members that have been hiding behind the broken shutters!

@RobertJudsonTo1 studies the understudied. This is what 5 For The Fight is all about. #5ForTheFight

Today I'd like to tell you about a fascinating paper published @eLife. I believe this study challenges a currently accepted notion in #cancer biology, namely, that oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) stops moles from developing into a #melanoma: (1/9) https://t.co/d5rIoFk40c

Really cool paper out in Nature by @PASPCR1 members at UCSF and UofUtah! They sequenced single #melanocytes from normal human skin. Phylogenetic analyses revealed clones of cells, spreading in fields and regional differences in mutational burden.

I am truly honored to be part of the 5 For The Fight team! Thank you for your support - we are excited to work with you to discover new ways to combat melanoma. https://t.co/rAfBV2cjay via @huntsmancancer

Interested in training with a collaborative community of melanoma researchers tackling all aspects of the disease? The JT lab is hiring post-docs for translational projects that harness single cell approaches. @MelanomaReAlli @societyMelanoma
