Exciting new paper by @VasuLabUCSF et al! "IFN signaling is associated with radiotherapy response in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors" jci.org/articles/view/195652 @NeurosurgUCSF @UCSFHospitals
This study is directly relevant to the clinical care of patients with the most common malignant tumor of the peripheral nervous system, while providing fundamental biological insight👇 Harish N. Vasudevan @VasuLabUCSF & team @UCSF reveal transcriptional, functional genetic, and cellular mechanisms of interferon signaling that underlie radiotherapy response in people with #MPNST: doi.org/10.1172/JCI195652

NF1 is frequently mutated in #glioblastoma, yet therapies targeting this alteration often fall short. @VasuLabUCSF & team @UCSF now show NF1 mutant glioblastomas exhibit prognostic signatures with distinct sensitivity to MEK inhibition: insight.jci.org/articles/vie…

A delightful time catching up with 10 of NTAP’s 18 Francis S. Collins Scholars & their mentors while in Brussels @ChildrensTumor. Thank you all for your dedication to moving the needle in NF1 research! #NFCON24 #endNF

So pleased to see our work in @NatureComms, led by @SkakodubAnna, @hswalch, and @KathrynTringale, with @nikolausschultz, describing the genomics and clinical outcomes of a large set of patients with NSCLC brain metastasis. @MSKCancerCenter @MSK_RadOnc rdcu.be/djJ2f
