Catherine Applegate, Nutritional Sciences PhD, has always been interested in #CancerResearch, but it recently became personal as she is undergoing cancer treatment.
She's excited to have family & friends call her "Dr." and start her postdoc!

We're celebrating our CCIL grads this week!
Parinaz Fathi,@TiMeUIUC graduate, will continue #CancerResearch as a postdoc - it's important to her b/c cancer is complex and can affect people from all backgrounds and walks of life.
Congratulations Parinaz! 🔶🔷

As a child, Rohit Bhargava assumed he'd either be a professional soccer player or an architect.
Now he's a bioengineering professor and the director of the Cancer Center at Illinois ⭐️ bit.ly/34DxYBy

When Catherine began her graduate research on cancer, she had no idea she would soon become a patient.
“It's teaching me to view my research not only as a scientist, but as a patient who may be highly impacted by that research.”
