Thrilled to have officially started my lab @CincyChildrens @ChildrensCBDI! We're studying tumorigenesis during embryonic and early postnatal development, with a focus on the liver. Please don't hesitate to reach out if interested (in any capacity)!

Amazing work solving this problem at human telomeres! Near and dear to me as my own PhD focused on this question but alas only in mice
Out now in @CellCellPress - a perfect way to cap my PhD before convocation tomorrow! [1/5] POT1 recruits and regulates CST-Polα/primase at human telomeres

Thanks to @TriIMDPhD classmate @freddyeescorcia for showing me around NIH, his awesome lab, & downtown Bethesda! Great way to cap off a few days of exciting science at the HHMI meeting in Janelia.
THE best perk of being at a hub for scientists is reconnecting with friends and colleagues. Great seeing and catching up with pediatric oncologist/scientist extraordinaire Dr. Peng Wu @pengwu321, a @TriIMDPhD program alumna (in my class!) while she visited @HHMIJanelia campus!

A well-written piece in @nytimes highlighting the importance of funding & continued research in childhood cancer survivorship. Reminder: “…only 4 percent of federal funding of cancer research goes to pediatric oncology.”

Thanks to @ForbeckForums for the incredible opportunity to participate! Exciting to meet & hear from leaders in HCC research & treatment around the world!
We are so grateful for the Forbeck cancer forum on liver cancer that brings together experts in the field to discuss the future of HCC therapy. It was such an intimate meeting deep dive into the science n clinical knowledge of HCC #livercancer #forbeckforum
