We wrapped the @cdi-einstein.bsky.social Retreat with four impressive projects from our workshop by Unai Heras Manterola, Lindsay Lafave, Maria Sosa, and Kamini Singh—covered dormancy & bioengineering, neoantigens, transcriptional heterogeneity & lung cancer. Wow! Thanks to all who participated!

Now Wenjun Guo @cdi-einstein.bsky.social presenting his work on MLL3 loss and metastasis initiation.

Today we had a phenomenal first day of our @cdi-einstein.bsky.social retreat. Great talks by @soledadsosalab.bsky.social Anna Skwarska and John McAuliffe.

Exciting to wrap up the presentations at our CDI retreat with two phenomenal talks by @cdi-einstein.bsky.social latest recruits who will start in 2026 @swagatag.bsky.social from @mit.edu and @samhegde.bsky.social from @mountsinainyc.bsky.social welcome to @einsteinmededu.bsky.social

The @cdi-einstein.bsky.social retreat is tomorrow! Featuring 1.5 days of exciting science with keynote by Dr. Lewis Chodosh (UPenn) and talks from our faculty and students. Thanks to MECCC, SWCRF, and Pershing Square Philanthropies for their support!

Getting ready to start our @cdi-einstein.bsky.social Retreat!

Now the Keynote Lecture at our @cdi-einstein.bsky.social retreat delivered by @amulyasreekumar.bsky.social from the Chodosh team at University of Pennsylvania - great work!

Exciting science presented by @wenjunguolab.bsky.social !

A day of exceptional science delivered by CDI Members. Thanks for joining the Retreat!

The CDI retreat is only one day away! 1.5 days of exciting science including our keynote speaker Dr. Lewis Chodosh @upenn.edu and talks by our members and new recruits (TBA soon)! Thanks to MECCC, Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation & Pershing Square Philanthropies for their support!

CDI Director Dr. Aguirre-Ghiso receives highest honor from the metastasis research society. Importantly, this & the Fidler Innovation Award to Dr. Cyrus Ghajar at @fredhutchprotons.bsky.social recognize the discoveries and research on cancer dormancy. www.linkedin.com/posts/metast...

Congratulations to CDI Member Eugen Dhimolea and collaborators at CDI and elsewhere for their recent publication revealing vulnerabilities of quiescent triple negative breast cancer cells persisting after chempotherapy : www.mdpi.com/2073-4409/14...

Congratulations to Rebeca San Martin @rsm7.bsky.social and Soledad Sosa @soledadsosalab.bsky.social for receiving the 2025 CDI Pilot Grant entitled "Elucidating the chromatin architectures between cancer dormancy and recurrence", which focuses on converging mechanisms in prostate cancer & HNSCC.

Congratulations to Dr. Sosa @soledadsosalab.bsky.social, one of CDI’s inaugural recruits, on this remarkable recognition by @susangkomen.bsky.social! This well-earned honor exemplifies and strengthens the transformative research vision at @cdi-einstein.bsky.social & @einsteinmededu.bsky.social

Congrats to Shoichiro Takeishi, @steidluli.bsky.social @gritsmanlab.bsky.social and co-authors on this fascinating discovery! @cdi-einstein.bsky.social @einsteincellbio.bsky.social

Excited about a day of exceptional cancer science being developed at our @einsteinmededu.bsky.social comprehensive cancer center. Featuring science being developed at our Cancer Dormancy Institute @cdi-einstein.bsky.social - proud to be part of this amazing community

Delighted to have opened this fantastic meeting in beautiful Thessaloniki organized by the equally amazing Evi Lianidou presenting updates from the lab @cdi-einstein.bsky.social including our CH collaborative work with @rosslevinemd.bsky.social lab. www.erasmus.gr/microsites/1...

I could not stay the entire meeting but it was great seeing friends and colleagues Evi Lianidou, Angela Nieto AndreasTrumpp Caroline Dive and many more at the 7th ACTC Meeting in Thessaloniki, Greece. Great to bring the science we are developing @cdi-einstein.bsky.social to this meeting.

Delighted to host Dr. Javier Bravo Cordero at our Cancer Dormancy Institute Seminar Series. Don't miss his exceptional work! @cdi-einstein.bsky.social @einsteinmededu.bsky.social @einsteincellbio.bsky.social

oncodaily.com/voices/metas.... Thanks for sharing this post with a broader audience @oncodaily.bsky.social the goal of our @cdi-einstein.bsky.social is to bring new science for interception of metasasis / recurrence and MRD at its earliest point.

Great @cdi-einstein.bsky.social seminar by Jose Javier Bravo Cordero from @mountsinainyc.bsky.social covering ECM architecture, metabolism and neuroscience. Fantastic work! Thanks for visiting us!

Amazing work from investigators at the @cdi-einstein.bsky.social. Congrats @divijverma.bsky.social and team! Elevated clonal hematopoiesis in 9/11 first responders has distinct age-related patterns and relies on IL1RAP for clonal expansion url: aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscov...

New work from CDI Member Dr. David Fooksman- Congrats! www.cell.com/cell-reports...

New study from CDI member Rachel Hazan. Congrats! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Important study showing that targeting dormant residual disseminated cancer cells can reduce MRD burden by Angela DeMichele, collaborator and Lewis Chodosh @penncancer.bsky.social who will be Keynote Speaker at our next CDI retreat! Congratulations!

New findings by CDI members @steidluli.bsky.social @gritsmanlab.bsky.social et al.,reveal how HSC numbers are controlled by both systemic & local (niche) mechanisms, primarily regulated by thrombopoietin, even with increased niche capacity. Congrats to all! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

@cdi-einstein.bsky.social @einsteinmededu.bsky.social @einsteincellbio.bsky.social

Please join me in congratulating the newly minted Dr. Madeline Friedman DeLuca! She did a phenomenal job in her thesis defense today! #ProudPI @cdi-einstein.bsky.social @einsteinmededu.bsky.social @monteeinsteinpath.bsky.social

New work from CDI members @wenjunguolab.bsky.social and Gregoire Lauvau published in Immunity. Congrats! www.cell.com/immunity/abs...

Accompanying pieces www.nature.com/articles/d41...

@cdi-einstein.bsky.social Director @jaguirreghisolab.bsky.social co-leads a study showing how viral infections can trigger via IL6 signaling awakening of dormant breast cancer cells in lungs. CDI's research focuses in part on host variations controlling the timing of residual cancer awakening

Great moment with the lab celebrating Lucía Petriz Otaño🇦🇷 passing her PhD qualifying exam and receiving her MSc!! Congratulations! We are very proud of you! @cdi-einstein.bsky.social @einsteincellbio.bsky.social

Important findings from the @soledadsosalab.bsky.social at the @cdi-einstein.bsky.social at Montefiore Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center on the mechanisms of dormant cutaneous melanoma awakening via midkine dependent signaling. Congrats on this story! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Arrived to Lisbon for the 2025 EACR @helloeacr.bsky.social @cdi-einstein.bsky.social

Delighted to have contributed to the tumor dormancy session at @helloeacr.bsky.social thanks @casanova-acebes.bsky.social for the pic! @cdi-einstein.bsky.social

New work from CDI member Evris Gavathiotis our in EMBO Molecular Medicine. Congrats! www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

The CDI announces the launch of the Cancer Dormancy Institute Service Core. The Core provides expert advice on markers, mouse, avian and 3D models, protocol development and rare cell isolation methods to explore dormancy, MRD & relapse biology across cancers. montefioreeinstein.org/cancer/resea...
