@gdstormo Congrats! I'll never forget when you glanced at a page of DNA sequence and picked out dozens of degenerate motif matches within seconds and jotted down the PWM. I thought I was luckiest person to rotate with a genome wizard like you. Thank you for training and inspiring me!

After losing her mother to #breastcancer, Katherine (K-T) Varley, PhD, dedicated her life to finding answers. Now as the leader of her own lab at HCI, she is providing answers to those with breast and #ovariancancer: https://t.co/SCsgt4sMGi

Thanks @huntsmancancer, @UUtah, and @ARUPLabs for fostering the collaborative environment that makes our translational research possible. It takes a village to develop a clinical test.

A personalized prognosis for patients diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer was the goal of a new study by Katherine Varley, PhD, researcher at HCI and assistant professor of oncological sciences at the @UUtah https://t.co/I5y14IHVLB

Thanks Debby @DebzNewz for the beautiful write-up of our research, and congrats to Rachel Stewart and our collaborators @huntsmancancer @UUtah for our recent paper in @CR_AACR :
A multigene assay determines risk of recurrence in patients with TNBC https://t.co/lILFCo6pAR

It was such a pleasure interviewing and getting to know Dr. Varley. Fascinating and pretty awesome work she's doing to try to make the quality of life better for triple-negative breast cancer patients.
