BTS WIP – Guest Speaker: Dr. Alisa Mueller

Presentations will focus on basic and translational science, with a flexible format.
For example: you can present an overview of your translational research program, a senior post doc can present a recently published or nearly completed project, a graduate student can get feedback on their proposed research project for their quals, or your instructor can present a plan for their upcoming K08 submission.
To ensure confidentiality while presenting unpublished data, and create a safe space for constructive feedback and discussion of new ideas, these seminars will be exclusively in-person. There won’t be recordings, and slides won’t be shared afterwards.
If you would like to present: please contact Alma-Martina Cepika or Kristha Fernandez.

BTS WIP: Kebebew Lab

I am excited to officially announce the start of the Basic and Translational Research Work-in-Progress (BTS-WIP) seminar series! BTS-WIPs will occur on the last Tuesday of every month from 3-4pm.
BTS-WIPs will provide an opportunity for our research labs to get to know each other and what we do. This will facilitate collaboration, sharing of resources and ideas, joint funding applications, and new initiatives.
To ensure confidentiality while presenting unpublished data, and create a safe space for constructive feedback and discussion of new ideas, these seminars will be exclusively in-person (with refreshments to follow).

Talk Title“Targeting PDPK1 has synergistic anticancer activity with BRAF inhibition in BRAF V600E-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer”
Dr. Tejinder Pal Khaket is highly experienced and accomplished Research Scientist in the Kebebew Lab in the Division of General Surgery. He leads translational oncology programs focusing on BRAF-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer and other aggressive solid tumors. By integrating advanced tumor models with multi-omics, his research exploits organelle-centric vulnerabilities, such as mitochondrial metabolism, to develop next-generation therapies for refractory cancers.
