Extremely happy for our team led by @tmem-samuel.bsky.social to have secured an NHMRC Ideas Grant, investigating how distinct ECM structures can influence cancer growth and metastasis.
But, more support needed for EMCR apps to foster next gen of emerging leaders. www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre...

ARC says they’ll release the Discovery Projects 2025 outcomes tomorrow.

Recently, outcomes announcements have tended to happen at/around 11am Canberra time.

My bot will pick up the announcement in RMS’s database and post immediately.

Good luck!

Excellent resource for the biological/medical sciences community on Bluesky.

Inspired by the other amazing starter packs - here's one for cancer researchers!

I tried to make this broad - from immunology to genomics to cell biology and so much more..

This list also includes organizations & institutes supporting cancer researchers 🧪🔬⚕️🩺

Hope its useful!

Super cool for so many of us ➡️ The Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN) is constructing 3D atlases of the cellular, morphological, molecular, and spatial features of human #cancers (and their #microenvironments) over time 🧪
