My inspiring leaders, scientists, and couple!
Grateful to have such an outstanding mentor, @profmikeking , as my PI and to be part of the exciting research at #KingLab
#BMES2024
Last day of #BMES2026! Wrapping up the conference with the final talk from the King Lab, presented by Dr. Antonio Martino!

🚨 It’s BMES week! 🚨
The King Lab is coming to Orlando with 7 presentations and 5 posters… Hope to see you there!

JoVE is here, filming our comprehensive shear stress mechanotransduction protocol paper for studying cancer and immune cells! Three different systems, covering the entire physiological range of shear stress signals, to sensitize cancer cells and activate immune cells…
Unbelievable!!! It’s amazing! Speechless
We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics.
The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra.
The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

Pleased to share an extensive interview I did with host Cameron Sabet, as part of his “Cutting to the Case” series on YouTube. We discuss my lab’s cancer and immune cell research, the field of oncology more generally, and the important work of @aimbe

It was a pleasure meeting Kristen Doyle, CEO of CPRIT, and sharing the work we are doing in @profmikeking’s lab at @RiceUniversity, as well as the journey behind BioNexis Therapeutics ,a startup born from our lab’s research and inspired by my own personal journey. – at Dallas, TX

A @RiceUniversity team led by Michael King achieved a historic first in cancer research—mechanoresistant cell cultures. Inducing and characterizing mechanoresistance in cancer cells sheds light on metastasis risk factors and can lead to better treatments. bit.ly/3Tfj1Ts
