Congratulations to @PrasoonaKarra for receiving @theNCI Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Fellow Transition Award! Her research focuses on understanding how changes to metabolism in obesity can influence risk of cancer. https://t.co/4QaZ0YClRf

[Maci Winn, PhD @MaciWinn]

Our findings using WHI data: new-onset diabetes after cancer dx worsens both cancer-specific and all-cause survival. Congrats @PrasoonaKarra ! 🎉📈

[Maci Winn, PhD @MaciWinn]

Excited to announce I received an F30 award from @theNCI! This supports my training as a #PhysicianScientist in the @SheetalHardikar lab studying metabolic dysfunction and cancer survivorship. Special thanks to my mentors & many others for your support! #CancerResearch #MDPhD

[Prasoona Karra @PrasoonaKarra]

Excited to share my dissertation research investigating new-onset diabetes after an obesity-related cancer diagnosis and survival outcomes. Grateful for the invaluable support @MCPlaydon @SheetalHardikar #CEBP #AACR #Diabetes #CancerSurvival #Epidemiology

The HiBED (Brain deconvolution method) paper is out https://t.co/KGqL7qN1xF. @ZeZhang0223 led this work integrating information from multiple platforms to address cell heterogeneity in brain samples. The method is available on #GitHub and soon on #Bioconductor. #DNAmethylation

[NCI Cancer Control @NCICancerCtrl]

Dr. Mary Playdon (@MCPlaydon) et al @UUtah will be studying ceramides as novel drivers of metabolic dysfunction and #ColorectalCancer in a recently funded @theNCI grant https://t.co/sVfArgney1

[Prasoona Karra @PrasoonaKarra]

I am really excited for this opportunity with a great team!

[Lucas Salas @lsalas_epigenet]

We want to welcome @PrasoonaKarra, PhD, as a postdoctoral fellow to the Salas's lab.
Her K00 award from @theNCI will explore "Metabolic health phenotype, accelerated aging and obesity-related cancer risk and mortality." #dnamethylation @GeiselMed @DartmouthCancer

When you’re doing PhD research, the challenges you encounter are often complex, ambiguous, and can feel unwieldy. That is part of the learning.

A PhD is in part a degree in managing complexity and ambiguity. Your PhD experience should be equipping you to wield the unwieldy.

[Matt Covington, MD @MFCovington]

Thank you @5ForTheFight_ and @huntsmancancer for supporting innovative research to help end cancer. Photo from the recent Huntsman Cancer Institute awards banquet with other 5 For the Fight fellows. Excited that these several research projects may help us improve cancer care.

[Mary C Playdon @MCPlaydon]

Obesity is linked to at least 13 cancers but 1/3 of lean individuals may have similar cancer-related metabolic dysfunction. Congrats @PrasoonaKarra! https://t.co/rN0OnyvJpC
