We're the Alexander Pietras Lab, exploring the complexities of the brain tumor microenvironment. We study how therapies like radiotherapy reshape it and seek innovative ways to outsmart tumors. AP posts @ Lund University trained @ MSKCC and @ Fred Hutch

@pietraslab.bsky.socialI've been trying to respond with a personal email to every request for a PhD or Master thesis placement in my group. But with the flood of AI generated applications that's now coming in every day, this has become impossible.
Show PostNew paper out in Neuro-Oncology Pediatrics. Thanks to everyone who worked on this with me.
Show Post🧬 Preprint! 🧵 Our goal is to genetically manipulate every embryonic germ layer to enable high throughput in vivo studies. We previously showed mouse ectoderm can be targeted by amniotic injection, enabling cell-specific manipulation, lineage tracing, and knockouts. But how to reach mesoderm?
Show Post⏱️ The countdown to #EANO2026 is on – and we are starting with a glimpse of the outstanding science awaiting us in Rome. Happy to announce one of this year’s Congress Awards: Congratulations to Giorgio Seano, selected to receive the Best Oral Presentation Award in Basic Research! #NeuroOncology
Show PostDelighted to share our new paper: “Reactive astrocyte-like states confer radiation resistance in glioblastoma” 🧠 We asked a simple question: Which glioblastoma cell states persist immediately after radiation, and why? 📄 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🧵 1/4
