Characterizing Supernova Host Galaxies with FrankenBlast: A Scalable Tool for Transient Host Galaxy Association, Photometry, and Stellar Population Modeling

The Astrophysical Journal
We present FrankenBlast , a customized and improved version of the Blast web application. FrankenBlast associates transients to their host galaxies, performs host photometry, and runs a innovative spectral energy distribution fitting code to constrain ...

Planetary nebulae as tracers of accreted stellar populations in massive galaxies in groups and clusters

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Planetary nebulae (PNe) are valuable spatial and kinematic tracers of nearby galaxies. In this mini-review, I focus on their role in tracing the halo and intra-cluster/intra-group light assembly in groups and clusters of galaxies within 100 Mpc and, in ...

Feasibility of a ctDNA multigenic panel for non‐small‐cell lung cancer early detection and disease surveillance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Plasma‐based detection of actionable mutations is a promising approach in lung cancer management. Analysis of ctDNA with a multigene NGS panel identified TP53, KRAS, and EGFR as the most frequently altered, with TP53 and KRAS in treatment‐naïve patients and TP53 and EGFR in previously treated patients.

New Rotation Periods from the Kepler Bonus Background Light Curves

The Astrophysical Journal
The Kepler field hosts the best-studied sample of field star rotation periods. However, due to Kepler’s large 4″ pixels, many of its light curves are at high risk of contamination from background sources.

Stellar evolution and stellar populations

, 2019
I will overview how the theory of stellar evolution and stellar populations evolved to explain the rich features observed in large surveys of the Magellanic Clouds -- going from subtle features in colour-magnitude diagrams to striking sequences in period-magnitude diagrams.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Tumor and germline testing with next generation sequencing in epithelial ovarian cancer: a prospective paired comparison using an 18‐gene panel

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Genetic testing in epithelial ovarian cancer includes both germline and tumor‐testing. This approach often duplicates resources. The current prospective study assessed the feasibility of tumor‐first multigene testing by comparing tumor tissue with germline testing of peripheral blood using an 18‐gene NGS panel in 106 patients.
