Global cancer health and disparity research are major focuses of the CCR Laboratory of Human Carcinogenesis @NCIResearchCtr. We look forward for a productive collaboration with the Kenya team under the leadership of @FrancisMakokha3.
I thoroughly enjoyed learning how PhIPSeq and VirScan can be used to detect persons at high risk of hepatocellular carcinoma from @XinWang77 team. Committed to a working collaboration ASAP. @Nyuka_Bel @KinyoriG @Wahura1 @ChemtaiMungo @BendaKithaka @DrEliasMelly @NCIKenya

The funds are going directly to the Jefferson Molecular Profiling of #PancreaticCancer (JMP PaC) Program @KimmelCancerCtr & will ensure that every Jefferson patient undergoing #PancreaticCancer surgery will have their tumor profiled regardless of insurance coverage.
