Thanks to all who have stopped by to chat with me about my poster - the full manuscript of this study was just accepted for publication by Cancer Prevention Research! Stop by poster CAN63 for an early "sneak peak" of the paper & watch for the pub coming soon!

If you need a break from #NSGC23 this week & want to pet/play with cats, I highly recommend a quick L train ride + reservation to visit @TheCatcade - one of my all time favorite cat "cafes" 😸 #ConferenceSurvivalTip

@Daisy_Genetics MD Anderson often has openings for research data coordinators, which can be a great opportunity to work w/ patients, apply language skills, sometimes (depending on the department) there is overlap with genetic counselors/hereditary cancer (one ex: https://t.co/UgiLtAJn4E)

@NicolaCadenas It looks like there is a "contact presenter" button to send a message, and a comment area. Comments don't seem to post unless you create an account with "GraphComment". I don't know where the "contact presenter" messages show up since it seems separate from the AC system 🤷🏼‍♀️

UT MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston TX is hiring a GC to join our team of 17! Opportunities in patient care, research, and education; hybrid role with remote and on-site days. DM to connect with our GCs at NSGC for informational interviews. #NSGC22 #GeneChat #GeneChatJobs

[Erica Bednar @EMBOSU]

As a big fan (and user) of implementation science approaches in QI & research, I'm so glad that this topic is highlighted as an educational break out session at #NSGC22 ❤️ #Dissemination #Implementation #Genetics #QualityImprovement #ProcessImprovement #Research

[Genetic Counselors @GeneticCouns]

We appreciate the work of our #NSGC22 presenters to incorporate J.E.D.I. issues in their presentations. For more guidance on how to minimize stigma when speaking on these issues, check out this useful style guide from the CDC. https://t.co/1TIpzRJA8X #GeneChat

Don't forget to check out e-posters on the virtual #NSGC22 platform!🧬Visit poster "ASD1" to learn about amazing efforts to improve pt care by GCs across 5 states-apparently too many GCs to fit on the website's author list 😬 (everyone is on the poster). Come say hello! #GeneChat
