So excited that years of work validating the prognostic value of ctDNA in pediatric sold tumors has led to this effort @BostonChildrens @DanaFarber and @broadinstitute to stand up a clinical liquid test specific for pediatric oncology. dana-farber.org/newsroom/new…
Congratulations to our partner in osteosarcoma research, Dr. Richard Gorlick @MDAndersonNews, for being named a Giant of Cancer Care. Well-deserved!

We have two #postdoc positions open to join my team at @emblebi in Cambridge! We are a mission-driven, highly collaborative and dynamic team ebi.ac.uk/research/cortes-ci… at the Wellcome Genome Campus, one of the most exciting hubs in the world focused on biomedical research 👇
It is always inspiring to see our young investigators and fellows at work @ctosociety. Thank you @AgentsMIB for partnering with us to bring past/present young investigators and osteosarcoma thought leaders together. It was a great week, and we look forward to next year!

To close 2023, we present our work on #osteosarcoma genome and clonal evolution biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… How does #osteosarcoma arise? What rearrangement mechanisms cause some of the most complex #chromothripsis events seen in human cancer? Does chromothripsis occur subclonally?👇

Congratulations and thank you @ctosociety for a fantastic meeting in Dublin! Loved watching our collaborators such as @janeway_MD give incredible talks that provide hope for the future.
In honor of Sarcoma Awareness Month 🎗️, we recognize Willie Tichenor and his journey with osteosarcoma. Because of him, we are committed to finding better treatment options for other kids like him. #BecauseofWillie @OSInstitute @COGorg
