This week we’re featuring Emily Neil, a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the #MRCWIMM
Emily is working on a particularly aggressive and treatment resistant subtype of childhood B cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B ALL), defined by the TCF3::HLF gene fusion.
Key Points. LIN28B, a fetal specific oncogene, is necessary for fetal B lymphopoiesis and KMT2A::AFF1 initiation of infant B ALLLIN28B stabilizes key fetal
#WorldCancerDay Discovery and early detection matter 🧪
Research at #MRCWIMM shows that platelets carry #DNA, offering new insights into cancer biology and early detection through fundamental science.

Study led by Psaila Group uncovers previously unknown function of platelets as DNA ‘vacuum cleaners’ in the blood, with profound implications for cancer diagnosis and prenatal screening.
Another step on the journey towards building human bone marrow in vitro:

When we published our first version a few years ago (doi.org/10.1158/2159...) the glaring gap was the lack of mature osteolineage (bone forming) cells, adipocytes, and lymphoid cells.
