Quality of the data matters! at least for predicting glioma progression from a patient's initial biopsy before any progression has occurred. Excited to share our new pre-print, authored by Michal Polonsky, Jonathan Fox, Yunrui Lu and Sheel Shah. (1/7) biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Check out what I’ve been up to for the past four years at Caltech! Exciting road ahead for therapeutic circuits.
Synthetic biology could enable new types of programmable therapeutics. Our new preprint introduces synthetic protein circuits that selectively trigger cell death in Ras-mutant cancer cells, with interesting advantages compared to existing approaches. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

How do tissues generate diverse cell types in defined proportions that vary across space and evolution? Our new preprint presents Lineage Motif Analysis (LMA), a statistical approach that extracts generative fate programs from observations of cell fates on lineage trees. /1

Paper is out! #Drosophila 'know' what's best! Flies build an internal expectation of the substrate options in their environment and use it to make informed egg-laying decisions. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia… [fly exploring options before laying an egg on the best one, 20x speed]🧵(1/7)
