Link to our work highlighting the dual benefits of blocking MIF and PD-1 to treat cancer! Thank you to all of our collaborators and my mentor, @BucalaRichard! nitter.cf/JCI_insight/status/198…
Overcoming resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors remains a major objective in #cancer Here, Richard Bucala @BucalaRichard & team @YaleMed show combined anti-MIF and anti–PD-1 reduces tumor growth and improves survival in melanoma and colorectal cancer mouse models: insight.jci.org/articles/vie… The figure shows tumor regions of necrosis, immune infiltration, and reduced tumor volume in mice treated with MIF and PD-1.

Sharing an important message from the dedicated staff at #YaleNewHavenHospital. We should all be doing our part to help curb the spread of COVID-19 and protect those in our community who are most at risk. Medicine is a team effort!

So happy to share my work, published this week in #jitc, which evaluated the effect of immunotherapy on tumor-associated edema in individuals with brain metastasis. Here’s to the wonderful patients and their amazing altruism for making research possible! rdcu.be/bMHKR

Learning from a master @DrRoyHerbstYale at giving scientific presentations (but with a great sense of humor) #VailWorkshop19!

Finally peer pressured into joining Twitter. My awesome roomie @YAbdouMD is teaching me so much beyond the #VailWorkshop19 clinical trial protocols. Working hard to develop promising trials to improve patient care but making great friends in the process!
