Very happy to share that I recently was awarded the @IUCancerCenter trainee pilot grant for my PhD project. This was my first time being the PI and the only recipient from @IUSMBloomington. This wouldn’t have been possible without @MitraLab1. Highly motivated for new discoveries!

Who remember these manuals which have been useful for so long in the daily work of the lab? We call them the ‘MANIATIS’ the name of one of the co-authors. Although why not the name of one of the other co-authors?

IUSM-Bloomington is seeking applications for an Assistant/Associate Professor in Cancer Biology! We welcome applicants in all areas of Cancer Biology. To see qualifications and to apply, please use this link: indiana.peopleadmin.com/post….
Participated in the Rumbleforthecure last Saturday to raise funds for @AmericanCancer and increase awareness about cancer. While I love riding, Rumbleforthecure is my favorite as it gives riding a greater purpose.

#DYK that there are several types of #ovariancancer? The ovaries are made up of multiple types of cells, and #cancer can develop within any of them. ▶️Watch this video to learn more. #oncology

Knowing your personal normal & when something feels wrong can be essential to identifying #ovariancancer symptoms. Don’t hesitate to call your doctor if you're experiencing these symptoms & they persist for more than 2 weeks. Share this in honor of National Women’s Health Week!
