Excited to share this paper in Blood Advances led by Brett Heimlich, Pawan Bhat & Alyssa Parker with Ferrell Lab that uses mitochondrial lineage tracing techniques pioneered by Peter van Galen Caleb Lareau, Vijay Sankaran to identify transcriptional consequences of #CHIP

New manuscript from our labs, collaboration with Alex Bick lab led by Brett Heimlich Pawan Bhat Alyssa Parker checkout the tweetorial 👇!

The best! Congrats to Emily and Matt!! 🔔💒

Thankful to have the support of VA Research for this work. Taking care of Veterans with blood cancer is a great privilege and we hope our research will eventually translate to improvements in therapy for them and all patients!

🙌Happy to share the first publication of 2024 from #BickLab , exploring the role of CHIP mutation zygosity in predicting clonal hematopoiesis transformation risk to hematologic malignancies published now in Blood Cancer Journal

Agree with Scott, no one better to lead the country's cancer research efforts! Congrats to Kimryn Rathmell !!🤩

Calling all Vanderbilt PSTP/Harrison Society applicants: we will also send out interview invitations on Thursday 10/12 APSA #ERAS2024 #MedTwitter

Congratulations to Dr. Ferrell Lab, Assistant Professor of VUMC Department of Medicine, on his R56 from NIDDK: Delineating Drivers of Inflammation and Progression in Clonal Hematopoiesis. Vanderbilt Hem / Onc @VUMCHealth #EFSkudos

That time of year already? Don’t like getting older, but I do like cake and hanging out with the Bick lab!

We are excited to share our work published today in Nature Immunology by Michael Rudloff, the whole @PhilipLabVandy team Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and in collaboration with our fantastic computational biology collaborators Doron Betel and his group Weill Cornell Medicine. 1/7

Enjoying the science enabled by The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research and awesome collaborators! Even remembered to get a lab pic 😎

Outstanding science and collaborators at our The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research retreat!
Look for our science coming soon! Ferrell Lab Stanley Lee Rui LU

So proud of these three! It has been phenomenal to see each of them develop into true leaders in biomedical research. Well done, and congratulations!

One of the biggest surprises in studies of clonal hematopoiesis has been how few mutations are in classical oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Instead, the majority of mutations are in 'epigenetic' factors. Why? This is a mystery that has perplexed me for >10 years.

Congratulations to our Vanderbilt Hem / Onc division director, Dr. Jordan Berlin, on being a recipient of the 2022 Dr. Kimryn Rathmell's Award!

We are excited and grateful to have the support of NIBR Novartis to continue studying human CHIP with friends Alex Bick lab VUMC Department of Medicine

Ever wondered where to find patients for a CHIP/cardiovascular disease clinical trial? How about in the cardiac cath lab. 🧵medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out this biology-preserving approach to fixation and tissue processing from Seth Fortmann , welnerlab , and team (bonus: learn what 'eutectic' means)...Congrats, Seth!

HUGE CONGRATS to Dr. jordan berlin for his OFFICIAL title as Director, Division of Hematology/Oncology Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center !!!
