Excited to share our recent pre-print describing a novel model of Uveal Melanoma in Adult Zebrafish. @UIowaResearch @PASPCR1 @ZebrafishRock Mitfa-Independent Melanocyte Progenitors are Highly Susceptible to GNAQ-induced Uveal Melanoma in Adult Zebrafish biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


UPDATE: Our annual meeting planned for November in Florida this year is on hold while we await the results of our R13. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and will update again when a final decision has been made.

The mutational profile is associated with recurrence-free survival - patients with any driver mutation have a higher probability of recurrence than patients without these mutations, with NF1 mutations likely having a stronger effect (4/12)

Most of the patients we studied have predominantly Amerindian ancestry (median 79%), with European (median 14%) and African (median 2.6%) ancestries also contributing to their genomes. This is in line with these patients being Mexican -an Admixed American population (2/12)
