Was honored to receive the AACR-BMS Midcareer(!😬) Female Investigator Grant in I/O award at #AACR22 this past week to expand our work investigating the impact of lymphatic transport on T cell trafficking and memory in melanoma @AACR @bmsnews
Congrats to @theLundLab, on the 2022 @AACR @bmsnews Female Investigator Grant: Targeting lymphatic transport to boost immune memory & reduce recurrence. @AACR believes this project will have great impact, & recognizes her as a future leader in the field. bit.ly/37LgSam

What an honor to have our recent @JExpMed paper highlighted by @NatureRevCancer !!!👇🏼Lymphatic vessels and the non-hematopoietic stroma are critical components of the response to #Immunotherapy
New study from @theLundLab shows IFNγ-mediated activation of the lymphatic vasculature limits CD8+ T cell accumulation in #melanoma in mice as a mechanism of immune suppression. #ResearchHighlight @NatResCancer go.nature.com/2RNDZ7f

Lymphatic vessels disseminate antigens, leukocytes, lipids, metabolites, and tumor cells between normal and malignant tissues dynamically reprogramming the host over time 👇 - still lots more to learn about their impact on micro and macro tumor progression and immunotx
Tumour-associated lymphatic growth & remodeling were once viewed as passive means for lymphatic spread. In this #Review, @theLundLab provide a working framework for the role of the lymphatic system in tumour progression & response to immunotherapy. go.nature.com/442H4GG nitter.app/NatureRevCancer/status…

Exactly this but for everything - if you think you're good...make yourself uncomfortable, test your limits, find your fail point...only that will make you better
Every young player in America needs to listen to this. "If you want to be successful, you need to be bad, then you need to be good. Then when you're good, you need to fail. Then when you fail, you're going to figure it out... ”

We will probably never compare to the women who have blazed these trails before us, we can only hope to try. Dr. Werb catalysed generations of science to come and her impact will be with us for a long time. My sincere condolences to those who knew her best.
I am heartsick over the passing of Zena Werb. Lucky to have been taken under her wing. Tremendous loss to science and humankind. Fav photo from 2019 AACR Fellows induction.
