Ludwig Cancer Research announced the launch Tuesday of the newest branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, which will be based at Princeton University. The Ludwig Princeton branch will be dedicated to the study of cancer metabolism.
Ludwig Princeton will be directed by chemical biologist and cancer researcher Joshua Rabinowitz, a professor in the chemistry department and the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at the university. Rabinowitz has made foundational contributions to the field of metabolomics, which is the large-scale, quantitative analysis of metabolite. He is a leader in the development and application of new technologies for the dynamic analysis of metabolic processes. His laboratory has applied this expertise to the dissection of cancer metabolism and is devising candidate cancer therapies based on the lab’s discoveries.

Joshua Rabinowitz looks back over a string of collaborations that have led to today s announcement of a new branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research at Princeton University.
He cites Craig Thompson, then head of Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center and now president of Memorial Sloan Kettering, who brought nearly a dozen researchers to visit Rabinowitz’s lab in 2008, when Rabinowitz was a little-known junior faculty member; the renowned cancer physician and scientist Chi Van Dang, who would become the scientific director at
