Glad to have had the opportunity to contribute to this commentary describing this important work from Seung Kim’s lab

Proud to post the final version of the Persaud Squad's first manuscript-we made a panel of SAv-drug conjugates enabling in-house, cost-effective ADC production from any biotinylated mAb. We compared CD45-ADCs with different payloads as HSCT conditioning agents. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

After all the damage that tornado caused, seeing this pop of color growing along my walkway is an especially welcome sight

Well that sucks. Living mostly unscathed by St Louis weather for almost 19 years, I guess I was due (and by the looks of it, pretty damn lucky it wasn’t worse). Hoping everyone else in the area is doing alright.

Damn straight, Southwest inflight app. As it should be.

Ugh…a truly brutal homecoming awaits our return from Honolulu.

Playing conference hooky. Worth it. #Tandem25 #DontTellJohn

A well-deserved shout out to my old friend Subhajit and his coauthors in the Miner lab @pennrheum.bsky.social on their new paper in @cp-cell.bsky.social . You love to see it! www.cell.com/cell/abstrac...

All aboard the impulse buy express. My pre-conference supply run looks an awful lot like I'm studying for a midterm #Tandem25

With all this uncertainty on the federal funding scene, it’s especially sweet starting the day with news of a 3 year foundation grant win. More on the new award very soon!

Good News - email phishers don't seem to be trying anymore

A well-deserved congratulations all around to the 2025 @ash.hematology.org Scholar Award recipients. Particularly proud to see WashU bring home 3 this year! www.hematology.org/newsroom/pre...

A weird and unfortunate coincidence that two of my favorite CD numbers (45 and 47) are also, as of today, the numbers of my least favorite president. What’s next, a return to politics by former senator Christopher “Kit” Bond (“c kit”)?

Great read shared with me by my labmate Dilan. Sound advice for all of us who want to promote “a rising tide that lifts all boats” in academia through mentorship. The 10 rules of the laboratory definitely needs to be a fridge magnet ashpublications.org/ashclinicaln...

An interesting keychain we got as a free gift with a purchase - any ideas as to what this red thing is (wrong answers welcome)?

#ASH24 ... it begins. There's gotta be an AI or other algorithm that sees "pathologist" in my member metadata and excludes me from the drug ad flood

Proud to receive a fellowship from @asgct.bsky.social to embark on a brand new project to develop a novel cellular approach to conditioning for hematopoietic stem cell transplants without chemotherapy or irradiation! www.asgct.org/publications...

Off to #ASH24 soon, and once again finding creative ways to blow through leftover pasta sauce before taking off for 5 days

An #ASHHaiku about some new preclinical work in the DiPersio lab, coming soon to an ASH near you: Anti-kit and SIRP Transplant sans chemo or rads Stop by to learn more ash.confex.com/ash/2024/web... #ASH24 #bmtsm

As desolate as this platform feels right now, can't beat the peace and quiet compared to the other place. Gonna try keeping this profile mostly professional with post about #science, #medicine, and the pursuit of becoming a #NewPI for awhile; we'll see how long that lasts
