We are the MeDOC Consortium! A collective of scientists collaborating to further our knowledge of mechanisms that link obesity, metabolic dysregulation, and cancer. @theNCI
Today's NCI-sponsored session featuring MeDOC, sparked incredible conversations around metabolic health and cancer — and connected us with some amazing content experts along the way. This is what community in medicine looks like. #MeDOC#AACR
Did you know metabolic issues linked to obesity can raise cancer risk? 🎗️The NCI/NIH Consortia Initiative MeDOC, is bringing together experts across disciplines to tackle this head-on. Learn more at today's NCI-Sponsored session from 10:15-11:15 PST at #AACR26.
Be sure to checkout the MeDOC Consortium's poster at #AACR this afternoon (4/21 2-5pm PST)! The poster will be set up in Section 4, Board 26

What a week at the MeDOC Consortium Meetings! Here's how it all went down:
Day 1 kicked off strong with cutting-edge project updates and poster pitches highlighting the incredible research the Consortium is conducting. We celebrated with bowling under the sea!
From groundbreaking science to unforgettable experiences, this meeting showcased what makes the MeDOC community special.
Thank you to @MakowskiLab and the WELCOM project for hosting such a productive meeting.
