Thank you to @CancerResearch for giving me the opportunity to share what I'm most thankful for both in and outside of research this holiday season!

[Cancer Research Institute @CancerResearch]

"Outside of my research, I am thankful to those who support it," shares CRI-Chordoma Foundation CLIP Investigator Dr. Snuderl @nyugrossman. "Through funding, awareness and patient advocacy." Discover what other CRI-funded scientists are grateful for today: https://t.co/vln9mLqSq7
