Proud of these findings - further insight into the roles of interferon in skeletal muscle. Female-unique type II interferon down-regulation associated with preserved muscle mass undergoing systemic cancer-cachexia.

[UA Cachexia Lab @UACachexia]

A first for our lab to be the lead in a pre-print. Really interesting work from lab rockstar @Franmorena98 as she uses RNA seq platforms to examine biological sex dimorphism in onset of cancer cachexia.

@UACachexia Will be forever grateful for all the opportunities and trust you have given me, @UACachexia
I really could not have asked for a better lab to begin my journey in research. I will miss every single bit of it! But surely will be back to visit every time I’m in town!!
