Congrats, Ira! Excited to see what’s to come for the @parkerici and the next wave of IO research and therapies.
Turning all cancers into curable diseases takes urgency, bold ideas and relentless drive. To advance that mission, we’re proud to share that Ira Mellman, PhD, has joined PICI as President of Research. A leader in cancer immunology, Dr. Mellman helped shape therapies like

I have entirely appreciated this platform for scientific engagement, interactions, and inspiration. However, it seems like the appropriate time to see how things look with clearer skies. See ya over there?

My lab in the Cancer Immunology dept @genentech is looking for a motivated immunologist to help advance our research and drug discovery efforts in the area of the TME, stromal-immune interactions, and tumor B cell biology. See job posting for more info:

Wonderful to meet and host @theLundLab this past week @genentech! Learned so much about lymphatic biology in the TME. Always love talking all things stroma.

It was pleasure to write this In The Spotlight article with @SorenMuller1 for @CR_AACR. Here we highlight the recent exciting findings from @RonDePinho and team in @CD_AACR identifying how mutant KRAS in CRC controls tumor-extrinsic lipid-rich CAF activation. #stroma #CAFs #CRC
In the Spotlight: One mutation to rule them all, by @akshayk25 and @SorenMuller1, describing a recent @CD_AACR paper from the @RonDePinho group. https://t.co/o4MWdk4Hnk

+1 from me. @MeganBurgerPhD is doing some really cool work. Recent grads should def take a look at this opportunity!
Looking to do a postdoc in cancer immunology? Join the Burger Lab @OHSUKnight! We use genetically engineered 🐭 and cutting-edge single-cell analyses to investigate factors regulating T cell responses to cancer and design next generation immunotherapies.

Stromal cells showing up as the cool kids yet again. Cool new work from the Mathis lab and @bolahanna! #CD45negativecellsmatter
Mathis and colleagues identify muscle mesenchymal stromal cells that respond to acute injury and coordinate both the inflammatory response and tissue regeneration. Read it here: https://t.co/qk4sXemXhn

In the last decade, our understanding of cancer immunity and immunotherapy has exploded and is reflected beautifully in this 10yr update on the Cancer Immunity Cycle from #IraMellmanm, @TurleyLabGNE & Co. Loving the love on TME, stroma, and TLS. https://t.co/rPGvRRBZrq

The cancer-immunity cycle provides a framework to understand the events that generate anti-cancer immune responses. Mellman, Chen, Powles, and Turley consider the last 10 years of research in cancer...

Excited to have @ZivShulman here at @genentech and host him as a Visiting Scientist in the Cancer Immunology Dept! Will be great to have his expertise on all things B cell, germinal centers, and tumor biology related to inform our own science over the next year! Welcome Ziv!

Yes. Yes. Yes. 💯
It’s the 90s. It’s now. It’s commemorative. It’s current. The Throwback uniforms are finally here. 💻 https://t.co/r1W2WVDyDe
