"I think the classic adage that the prepared mind is necessary to take advantage of the fortuitious circumstances that an individual has is absolutely right." Cell biologist Craig Thompson discusses the role of intuition in making scientific decisions in this #AskAScientist.
Our work on intercellular transfer of mitochondria and cancer metastasis has been featured in Cancer Discovery, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research. @AACR

T cells have deservedly been in the🔦for #cancer#immunotherapy, but other engineered cell therapies are now📈. What mediates NK cell exhaustion remains an important unanswered❓.

I’m so thrilled🥳to share our work out now🚨@Nature…
🎉 NIH-MERIT Award (R37): I have received the NOA for my first R01 grant from the NIH. I am honored that it has been selected for conversion into an R37 MERIT Award, which allows funding for up to seven years! Learn more: grants.nih.gov/funding/activi…
Recently published research on cancer cells and nerve cells led by Simon Grelet, Ph.D., is attracting even more attention. The journal Science includes an article titled "Tumors may get supercharged by acquiring powerhouses of nerve cells." ow.ly/hHj350WmyBW
The fireworks in your mind. 🧠✨ This sparkling video shows the neurotransmitter glutamate being released into synapses, made possible by an indicator developed by @abhi_aggarwal1, @PodgorskiLab, and team.
