🎆🎉 Absolutely thrilled and deeply grateful to receive a Canadian Cancer Society Emerging Scholar Research Grant to support our work on targeting inflammation in acute myeloid leukemia at @pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social A huge thank you to CCS for investing in early-career researchers.

Canadian Cancer Society Research@ccsresearch.bsky.social · 3w ago

Next-generation research is on a roll! We’re thrilled to announce the recipients of this year’s @cancersociety.bsky.social Emerging Scholar Research Grants. This funding supports early-career researchers across Canada in pursuing innovative, impactful, meaningful #cancer #research.

Thank you for highlighting our work @terryfoxresearch.bsky.social! Steven Chan, @danieljdrucker.bsky.social and I are very excited to harness the implications of inflammatory memory in human blood stem cells for blood cancer prevention in our recently funded TFRI-CIHR team initiative.

Terry Fox Research Institute (TFRI)@terryfoxresearch.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Terry Fox-funded researchers have identified blood stem cells that can remember inflammation long after an infection is gone. Stress from inflammation may alter cells behaviour, drive blood cell aging and raise cancer risk. Learn more about this bold Terry Fox-funded research: tinyurl.com/yxwmx88f

So excited to be speaking at the Opening and State of the Art session at #cyto2026. Honored to have been invited. Looking forward to showcasing how #FlowCytometry is integral to the 🧪study of #HSC and 🩸 production.

Thrilled to share our new publication in Nature. We define an “inflammatory memory” HSC state (HSC‑iM), linking lifelong inflammatory exposure to aging and disease. Grateful to an incredible team and global collaborators! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 #NewPublication alert! A new @nature.com study from scientists at @pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social and @ox.ac.uk has discovered that human blood-forming stem cells can “remember” past inflammation—memory that may influence health and disease outcomes. 🔗 Read more: www.uhnresearch.ca/news/5-27-20...

I was lucky enough to experience the beauty of Kamakura while attending the 16th JSH International 🩸🧪symposium. The Great Buddha, Bamboo temple, Hachimangu Shrine and a glimpse of Mount Fuji from the hotel.

Proud of the collaborative spirit, shared curiosity, and collective effort of the team! 🚀ATP2B1 is a new surface marker to dissect human #HSC heterogeneity, out at @pnas.org. Deeply grateful esp to the participants that donate cell material for #bloodresearch.

Princess Margaret Cancer Centre@pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Our researchers discover a new marker called ATP2B1 that identifies a rare group of blood stem cells that are especially good at repopulation and self-renewal—offering a new way to study how blood stem cells stay healthy over time. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... @uhn.ca @uhnresearch.ca
