I should note that while I said we’re hiring “a” geneticist, we have the resource to hire more than one, with the right candidate.

So come join us @USC, @KECKSchool_USC and @uscpphs, with good company of @nmancuso_ @adamdesmith @StevenGazi @VWSetiawanPhD @dvconti Joe Wiemels!

What is the comparative burden of liver cancer in females and males?

➡️Globally, the burden of liver cancer remains higher in males

BUT

➡️Incidence and Deaths from NASH-liver cancer in females are comparable to males
