Immunotherapy has significantly improved outcomes for #LungCancer patients, but it doesn't work for all patients. Learn how #PhF23 predoc awardee @ak_kapoor96 of @WeillCornell @mittallab is studying strategies to improve effectiveness of #immunotherapy. ow.ly/eeIq50OzZeg


So excited and honored to be awarded @PhRMAfoundation’s pre-doctoral fellowship! Grateful for my mentor @mittallab for all his support! My thesis work is aimed to utilize club cells’s secretary proteins to target immunosuppressive myeloid cells in lung cancer.

Non-small cell lung cancer makes up +80% of #LungCancer cases, but only 20% of patients benefit from #immunotherapy. #PhF23 awardee @ak_kapoor96 of @WeillCornellGS @mittallab is studying therapeutic strategies to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy. bit.ly/PhF23

I’m presenting a poster today at @AACR for the first time! I’ll be talking about reprogramming immunosuppressive myeloid cells in context of non small cell lung cancer. #AACR23 @mittallab @PhRMAfoundation

Not only is #metastaticcancer deadly, it is also one of, if not the most, challenging areas of cancer biology. Fred Hutch hopes to change that with the launch of the Center for Metastasis Research Excellence, or MET-X, led by @GhajarLab bit.ly/3JF2ocV

Very large NLP models are able to do surprising things! But can they answer why-questions? We perform an extensive set of experiments to find the best way to inject knowledge from COMET into T5/GPT-3 on TellMeWhy 1/4 #NLProc #EMNLP2022

Research work that I started during my master's was recently published! We worked on a novel DNA vaccine for TB, it's a promising adjunctive therapy to shorten standard TB treatment duration. #tuberculosis #immunology doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.…

New publication! We developed a novel therapeutic DNA vaccine which may be a promising adjunctive approach combined with standard therapy to shorten curative TB treatment doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.…



Impressive results! #Immunotherapy

Very proud of our study published in @NEJM 100% clinical complete response with dostarlimab alone in mismatch repair-deficient locally advanced #RectalCancer. No radiation or surgery! @ASCO #ASCO22 @MSKCancerCenter nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

In two weeks, the Nobel Committee at the Karolinska Institute will award the 2020 Nobel Prize in Medicine/Physiology. Who will win? We don’t know for sure - but I think that we can make some educated guesses.

I want a cooking-style show but for a molecular biology lab. “And now, we’re going to take our agarose while it’s still warm and garnish it with a little Ethidium Bromide. Make sure you mix it up real good before pouring into our trays...
