#Preprint alert! Pioneering work by @tanmana_mitra sheds new insights into why T cells become metabolically exhausted during persistent antigen encounter: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#Preprint alert! @KevinYTChen, a brilliant @GSKGradSchool graduate student and NCI F99/K00 awardee, identifies a novel, post-transcriptional checkpoint on intratumoral T cell function: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

After almost a full year, I finally received my NOA for the NCI F99! Thanks to my mentor @SantoshVardhana for making this possible.

#GSK Student @KevinYTChen in the lab of Santosha Vardhana recently presented a poster on his research at the CICON 2023 – 7th International Cancer Immunotherapy Conference in Milan, Italy. Well done!

Off to #CICON23! Promise we won’t embarrass you @SantoshVardhana

Got this cute little mug from @thermofisher , yes caffeine is every scientists’ best friend.

Thrilled to talk about my project in front of a room full of people. Extra thrilled when your PI compliment your presentation skill by telling you that you have improved "dramatically" lol, how bad was I? -just kidding

Had so much fun speaking about a new project today at student seminar! Amazing talk also by the brilliant @KevinYTChen!!

TODAY at GSS, #GSK students Kevin Chen bit.ly/3nmDR18 and Juliana Delgado bit.ly/3ACmMUS will present!

On the plane back to Boston. Had a great three days with science! Met old friends and made new friends! I need some time to turn on my networking mode…It ended when I felt the mode was just on. Hope to know and chat with other people next time. #KSTumorMetabolism22

Extremely thrilled and honored to present in this year’s joint meeting at #KSImmunoMetabolism22 All thanks to my mentor @SantoshVardhana, hope we successfully showed everyone the importance of translational control in intratumoral T cell dysfunction! #ImmunoMetabolism

Of course, none of this could have worked without the beautiful work by @natasha_pavl0va !

So privileged to present @KevinYTChen's developing work in @VardhanaLab on regulation of intratumoral T-cell translation at @KeystoneSymp and to have received such helpful feedback from numerous colleagues. Proud to be a member of this community! #immunometabolism

Thrilled to receive a @TheVFoundation Scholar award for our work exploring how nutrient availability and utilization regulate intratumoral T cell dysfunction. Proud to be a member of the V family! #VictoryOverCancer #CancerResearch

Featured today by @MSKLibrary: #Genome-wide #CRISPR screens of T cell exhaustion identify #chromatin remodeling factors that limit #Tcell persistence: dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ccel…
