@PhRMAfoundation @RutgersU Congrats Masuda, keep up the great work!

[Alexander Valvezan @AlexValvezan]

Congrats to our outstanding graduate student, Masuda Akther! And thank you @PhRMAfoundation for providing this support!

[PhRMA Foundation @PhRMAfoundation]

Cancer cells are like a fast-growing city, and #PhF26 awardee Masuda Akther @RutgersU wants to stop construction. She is targeting two cancer mechanisms with one therapy to create a more efficacious treatment.
