Thank you @_TanyaBondar_ for highlighting our paper. We are thrilled to see the work out today in Blood Cancer Discovery. For all our friends in the myeloid community, @BCD_AACR has made the full text available for free until Friday! Please download it today brnw.ch/21x2FHK A huge thanks to @AkEisfeld @iannisaifantis1 @audrey_lasry @BettinaNadorp … working with you on this project was a pleasure and a privilege 🙏🏻💜 PS: it is not everyday that you get interviewed by BCD’s Abigail Cleveland in front of not one but 2 #HassanHajjaj pieces in the background … EPIC!!! Stay tuned for the interview!!!
Bright stars @audrey_lasry @BettinaNadorp @sanamloghavi @iannisaifantis1 @AkEisfeld aligned in this truly stellar work on extramedullary AML, published today @BCD_AACR doi.org/10.1158/2643-3… and presented at the #Myeloid2026 in Cincinnati just now:
Very excited to share our work on myeloid sarcoma, out today! Don’t miss @iannisaifantis1 presenting it this afternoon at #Myeloid2026
Read this just published article by Sanam Loghavi, Ann-Kathrin Eisfeld, and Iannis Aifantis, et al. “RAS Pathway Activation is a Hallmark of Myeloid Sarcoma.” #Myeloid2026 aacrjournals.org/bloodcancerdis… @sanamloghavi @iannisaifantis1 @AkEisfeld @audrey_lasry @BettinaNadorp #AMLsm
Annual #AifantisLab photo...#2026. Amazing to work with great colleagues...in a great city and institution @nyugrossman ...visit our online sites to learn more on our work in leukemia, epigenetics and tumor microenvironment: aifantislab.com ; med.nyu.edu/faculty/iannis…
@iannisaifantis1 @nyugrossman Congratulations Iannis! Excited for the next chapter!
Excited to share our lab’s second paper published in @ScienceTM led by @spicyscientist and @Cuijuan3! 1/ science.org/eprint/W9M5JXK…
nature.com/articles/s4146… Our work is out!!!🎉🎉🎉
Welcome on X Dimitri Papaioannou (@DimitriosP60249) a physician-scientist affiliated with our lab @nyugrossman !!! And would like to share his latest paper on a protein-coding circular RNA controlling DNA damage in myeloid leukemia...! ashpublications.org/blood/article-…
Coinciding with our (Audrey Lasry) presentation at #ASH25 today, our pre-print is just out! Years of extensive characterization of myeloid sarcoma from genetic mapping to molecular evolution, sc transcriptomics, spatial analysis, animal modeling and drug targeting! Years of close collaboration with @AkEisfeld and @sanamloghavi ! Work lead by @BettinaNadorp and Audrey Lasry. The RAS work a collaboration with @PapapetrouMDPhD and @rosslevinemd . Enjoy!! biorxiv.org/content/10.648…
Big news from the #Glytsoulab today!✍️Our research on drug resistance in leukemia is published in @ScienceAdvances. Targeting OPA1 can help overcome therapy resistance in AML, including the most challenging cases. 📖 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Out today the last piece of work that Maria Guillamot did in our lab in a collaboration with @AWeinstock and @DrShrutiNaik (who lead the study) showing type I interferon (IFN)-mediated activation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells resulting in profound changes to systemic host responses...such studies could impact the way that we connect inflammation, autoimmunity to hematopoietic stem cell biology, differentiation and dysfunction... academic.oup.com/jimmunol/artic…
Delighted to share our study out in @CellStemCell today from the dream team @PapaemmanuilLab @iannisaifantis1 @AkEisfeld @landau_lab! We profiled IDH-mutated AML patients to define how IDH and co-mutations shape the disease at baseline and responses to IDH-inhibitors. 🧵👇
Excited to share with all our latest work on the use of single cell tools in following IDH mutant AML patients during their treatment! Out today @CellStemCell !! An amazing collaboration with @AkEisfeld & @PapaemmanuilLab & @landau_lab !!! Driven by the impressive @MariaSirenko and @soobeomlee & Zhengxi Sun at @NYUGSOM_Path
Excited to share our review on the immune microenvironment in leukemia, with @zoe_ciantra & @iannisaifantis1, out in @NatImmunol. #AifantisLab #tumormicroenvironment #leukemia nature.com/articles/s4159…
Out today at @NatImmunol our extensive review of the immune micro-environment in human leukemia. Prepared by Zoe and Varvara in the #AifantisLab. Its been a decade-long trip to demonstrate that -like solid tumors- leukemia has specific niches in tissues and directly interacts with cells of the immune system. #Cancer #leukemia #tumormicroenvironment nature.com/articles/s4159…
Excited to see our story showing that the #stressresponse regulator #HSF1 modulates NK cell anti-tumour immunity out in @NatureCellBio. Thanks to fantastic work with @nkourtis @iannisaifantis1 and team @nyulangone 🧵👇 nature.com/articles/s4155…
Preprint📢 #Inflammation causes the body to remembers to fight better next time. Here we found that skin inflammation doesn't boost immune memory like we thought—it can also dampen it! Find out how this surprising result could change our grasp of #Immunity biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
Excited for our latest work biorxiv.org/content/10.110… with @efapostolou29 & @artsinyc. We study the role of 3D hubs & enhancer rewiring in early developmental lineages & introduce 3D-HiChAT machine learning approach to nominate impactful enhancers for gene regulation.
@politikaterina @iannisaifantis1 @Fusion_Conf @KevinHaigisLab @SageJulien @NYUGSOM_Path So nice to meet you! Hope to see you again soon!
