MSK Research Highlights, August 13, 2024
New MSK research found patients with non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases may benefit from up-front stereotactic radiosurgery; identified a connection between antibiotic use and autoimmune diseases; and uncovered a previously unknown structural role for messenger RNAs in the cytoplasm of cells.

A team of researchers led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) and collaborators at Emory University are shedding new light on deadly fungal infections that develop in bone marrow transplant patients.
MSK Awards & Appointments January 2023
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) announces the following awards and appointments.
Andrea Schietinger
In order for immune cells to effectively kill cancer cells, a triad of three cells are necessary — a dendritic cell, a cytotoxic “killer” T cell, and a helper T cell, researchers at MSK and Baylor College of Medicine have found. The discovery could alter the way doctors administer immunotherapies.
Ellen Horste
Learn how GSK graduate Dr. Ellen Horste’s time investigating fundamental biological questions prepared her for a career in the emerging field of gene therapy.
Pancreatic cancer cells
MSK researchers have discovered a new mechanism of resistance to KRAS inhibitors that suggests an opportunity to make the treatment more effective.

New MSK research developed a deep-learning model designed to aid challenging cancer diagnoses; identified key regulators of infection-clearing immune cells; and shed new light on the mechanical forces exerted by immune cells.
A researcher pipettes in the lab
New MSK research helped develop a machine-learning tool to help find cancer cells that remain after surgery; led to FDA approval for CAR T cell therapy against mantle cell lymphoma; tested a liquid biopsy approach that shows promise in detecting lung cancer; found checkpoint inhibitors were effective against endometrial and ovarian cancers with DNA-repair deficiency; and shed new light on mTOR's role in metabolic enzyme degradation.
