Big congrats to Juan for earning a Travel Fellowship to present his work on how the nutrient environment alters amino acid metabolism in pancreatic cancer at Keystone Symposium on Tumor Metabolism!
Muir lab at ASCB
Check out Patrick presenting his work on how non-lipid nutrients impact SREBP signaling and lipid metabolism (and therapeutic targets) in pancreatic cancer at ASCB-EMBO 2021!
Congratulations Colin and Juan!
Big congratulations to Colin and Juan for being awarded the University of Chicago Cancer Biology Cameron Brooks and MaryEllen Connelan Awards in cancer biology research! Thanks for all your hard work to find new ways to target pancreatic cancer metabolism and re-sensitize pancreatic cancer to chemotherapies!
welcome james!
Super excited to welcome James Martin II, PhD to the lab as new postdoctoral fellow! Can read his awesome thesis work about microbial drug resistance and metabolism here and follow him on twitter @JamesKeithMart1!
thank you pancan!
Thank you to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network for funding our work to identify metabolic adaptations required for survival of tumor nutrient stress, in particular arginine-deprivation stress! We are very grateful for your support!
Thank you national pancreas foundation!!
Thanks to the National Pancreas Foundation for supporting our work! Super excited to work with the NPF extending our understanding of the metabolism that underpins pancreatic cancer.
Thank you Cancer Research Foundation!
Thank you to the Cancer Research Foundation for funding our work on pancreatic cancer, metabolism and the immune system. Very excited to get this work underway!
New tumor interstitial fluid (TIF) extraction and quantification protocol published!
Great to work with bio-protocol to publish super detailed methods for the interstitial fluid extraction and metabolite quantification we perform in the lab. Great to work with bio-protocol and hope people find it useful! Always happy to answer questions too!
Muir lab at the Midwest Metabolism Meeting

Thanks to Van Andel Metabolism Program team for organizing such an informative and fun meeting!
Thank you Brinson Foundation!
Excited to announce that our work on pancreatic cancer metabolism has been funded by the Brinson Foundation! Thank you!
