News from the Johnstone Gene Regulation lab @PeterMacCC encompassing transcriptional dysregulation, epigenetics, immunology and metabolism in cancer

Absolutely wonderful to see this study from @PeterMacRes and @MonashUni published in PNAS

Peter Mac's @JohnstoneRicky and @MonashUni researchers have designed a single drug that delivers a lethal ‘one-two’ punch to several types of #bloodcancer in preclinical studies and could lead to improved treatments. Read the full story: petermac.org/about-us/news-…

Absolutely rapt to have this paper published in PNAS. Great to collaborate with @JakeShortt3 and Phil Thompson from @MonashUni on this project with more exciting stuff to come! Thanks to all @PeterMacRes @PeterMacCC for continued support.

Rationally designed chimeric PI3K-BET bromodomain inhibitors elicit curative responses in MYC-driven lymphoma | PNAS pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107… Proud of our collaborative effort. Great working @SCSMonash with @JohnstoneRicky and @MIPS_Australia. Thanks to @NFMRI for the support.

Thanks for posting this very exciting data @DanilovLab. Targeting aberrant transcription in oncology…. A very appealing concept for the @JohnstoneLab and others that’s for sure.

CDK9 is an important target in NHL. In heavily-pretreated DLBCL pts including many post CAR-T, ORR/CR 50%/20% and some are durable. Excited to share clinical data on the molecule our lab and Australian colleagues helped advance into trials #ICML17 @JohnstoneRicky @DrAnasYounes

So proud to see @Stephintje transition from a postdoc in the @JohnstoneLab to an independent position @WEHI_research and now Snow Fellow…. Great things to come 4 sure! Kudos to @SnowMedical for awesome support of Australian science 👏 @PeterMacRes

WEHI's @Stephintje is one of three Australian researchers to receive an $8m Fellowship from @SnowMedical. He will use the Fellowship to study the cell’s messenger factory, RNAPII, to find new treatment options for cancers such as leukaemia. wehi.edu.au/news/8m-snow-f…
