That’s a wrap on #MRS2026! It was a pleasure so share our work on how the macroenvironment shapes cancer cell fate and regulate dormancy. Proud of work trainees for representing our lab so well and bringing home two Outstanding poster awards! @standrapela.bsky.social @metastasisresearch.bsky.social

So proud of Tomas Zelenka for taking home the Postdoctoral Presentation Competition at the @moffittnews.bsky.social 2026 Distinguished Lecturer Symposium! 🎉👏 #proudPI And what a privilege to have Dr. Jennifer Wargo as this year’s Distinguished Lecturer, truly inspiring!

Honored to be recognized as the Research Educator of the Year. A PI’s real legacy isn’t just the papers they publish or the grants they win, it’s the people they mentor, the scientists, thinkers, and leaders who carry forward the values, curiosity, and rigor they helped cultivate

So proud of Joanne Tejero, the first Gomes Lab student graduating 🎉🥳 🎓 #proudPI

So proud of Felicia Lazure, who spearheads our studies on aging and lung cancer, for her American Lung Association Catalyst Award. Thank you for the continued support of our studies @moffittnews.bsky.social #proudPI

Super proud of @standrapela.bsky.social, this just cements what I have known all along, you have a bright future ahead of you! #proudPI

Super excited to share our newest piece out today @natrevcancer.nature.com linking age-induced metabolic reprogramming to cancer development. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A big thank you to all the co-authors and collaborators on this study for their contributions to bring this to the finish line! @standrapela.bsky.social @gomeslab.bsky.social @jaguirreghisolab.bsky.social And the majority not on BlueSky!

So happy to share the newest pre-print from the lab where we show that old age significantly changes the traits that evolve in established lung adenocarcinoma. This work sheds light into the importance of modeling age-related cancers in the context of old age. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

You cannot underestimate all the positive and long-term benefits of having a supportive #mentor One could argue this is at least as important as the research topic 🧪 Do choose wisely.. #MentoringMonth

🔔 We're hiring a Research Technician to join our team! The ideal candidate will be down to work with mice and human tissues, be available to join us for at least two years, and enjoy being a part of an ambitious research team. Apply here: correialab.com/join-the-team/ Funded by La Caixa Foundation

Happy Holidays from the Gomes Lab 🎄🎅

Congratulations @standrapela.bsky.social, very well deserved #ProudPI

For a starter package on Cancer and Aging 👇🏻 Thanks Sandy ☺️

Join us in Boston! The Department of Molecular Metabolism (MET) at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has just opened a Jr. Faculty search. Apply by January 15, 2025 at academicpositions.harvard.edu/postings/14371

new out in Nature www.nature.com/articles/s41...

So proud of our student Devesh and postdoc @standrapela.bsky.social representing our lab at #AACRtumorenviron24

🦋Introductory post 🦋 The Metastasis Research Society (MRS) is a professional society for metastasis researchers. The MRS is dedicated to promoting research into all aspects of metastasis, and the exchange of information amongst key stakeholders including scientists, clinicians & patients.

Check out our News and views on @carman-mc-li.bsky.social cool study about the molecular regulation of Brca1 deficiency mammary oncogenesis - with Steven Lewis www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We had a lot of fun conceptualizing and writing this perspective. If you want to know more about metabolism and cancer dormancy check it out 👇🏻

Mind blowing talk by James DeGregori on viral infection, awakening, and maintenance of metastatic outgrowth. Not good news for those of us that have had multiple Covid-19 infections. #AACRtumorenviron24

Super cool work from @vonmeyennlab.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Let's start the week at Bluesky with an updated Starter Pack V3.0 #metabolism and #mitochondrialbiology are super strong here! go.bsky.app/VavECSX

Super happy to share our lab new paper spearheaded by graduate student Joanne Tejero describing a role for the age-induced oncometabolite methylamlonic acid in promoting T cell exhaustion and contributing to lung cancer immune evasion. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
