It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

looking to find folks who have current access to identified specimens (can be live or dead and well preserved) of many mosquito species. there are 3500ish described Culidae out there - anyone know anyone who might have specimens from 50+ species? please get in touch if so!

If you organize a meeting, session, or seminar series and are open to speaker suggestions in genetics or computational biology, especially junior faculty approaching tenure who would really benefit from the exposure, please message me for names.

Reboosting this with the hope of offering colleagues in the US, especially those in precarious situations, a potential escape route as the system over there collapses… great team and place to live and work…

Congratulations, what a lovely piece of work!
