Great week of exciting #PancreaticCancer research at #AACRPan23. Fun taking students @malroach_ and Ryan Robb to what was my first panc conference 9 years ago, #newPI, and catching up with old friends.

Dear United States you disgust me with your lack of reasonable parental leave policies. Do better.
Why two scientist-mums made a database of parental-leave policies

Some great news for the Schott lab as we start R35 and R21 awards this summer! Humbled and elated to continue our work on lipid droplet trafficking and endosome machinery. We have projects available for those interested in cell biology as well as liver steatosis and cancer.

Good timing for this preclinical study in @CR_AACR from @cjder23 et al: Combination Therapies with CDK4/6 Inhibitors to Treat KRAS-mutant #PancreaticCancer
https://t.co/IxMFDJBZGV Potential cellular targets that might explain mechanism(s) of resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors
