Happy Pride month! 🌈

Incredible honor to speak @UMichSurgery at the annual Moses Gunn Research Conference. The breadth and impact of the science from the faculty, residents and students was inspiring and humbling. Thanks to @jdimick1 for being an awesome host. Bonus - got to hang w/ @gmdoherty too!

Very few parts of my job @UMichSurgery are more meaningful to me than mentorship. It was so special today to be recognized for my mentorship and more importantly for my mentee @BGriffithMD receiving the outstanding resident research award for his seven amazing years of work.

How do precancerous pancreas lesions turn into pancreatic cancer? A new study from @UMICHpancreas finds that while the lesions express many of the same genes as tumors, the microenvironment remains like the normal pancreas. https://t.co/hLWgrT4cNu @UMichSurgery @CD_AACR
