MSU Pharmacology & Toxicology

Our Integrative Pharmacological Sciences Training Program students have been on a journey to learn how to be better mentors to undergraduates in their labs. In their final session, they unleashed their creativity to visually represent what mentoring means to them - we just loved their thoughtful images and wanted to share them.

Congratulations to Dr. Sachi Horibata on her groundbreaking publication in Cell Reports. This excellent new study identifies tubulin polymerization-promoting protein 3 as a mechanism responsible for cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.

Most of the time we travel in packs to meetings (it's a scientist thing). But even when we go it alone, we always find a friend (or an alum).

How do you feel about broccoli 🥦?
Check out this amazing new paper from the Rockwell lab, which shows that sulforaphane, a compound in broccoli, modulates your immune system (link to the paper in the comments).

And just like that, we send another PhD graduate out into the world. Huge congratulations to Dr. Dimitri Joseph, who completed his PhD research in Dr. Bin Chen's lab. Dimitri will now head back to medical school to complete his DO degree.
