On this month’s podcast, we’re celebrating a new year with new scientists and new research. We’re sitting down with Andrew Hu, a recently hired associate professor, and he’s going to discuss the role that endoplasmic reticulum plays in certain types of blood cancers and how understanding it may lead to more effective treatments. We’re also discussing melanoma with Marie Webster, a postdoctoral researcher, who tells us about a paper she recently authored about cancer cells that behave like they’re dormant but may be anything but. And be sure to stay tuned after the interviews for a brief recap of recent events.
