So inspired after three incredible days at #EAI24 filled with amazing talks! Thanks to everyone that visited my poster. I loved having the opportunity to discuss my research in premalignant pancreatic lesions. Grateful to my supervisors JL Stephen G Maher for their support.

Tremendously proud to share my fellowship work, online today in Nature Medicine. We tried to understand why CAR T therapy for AML doesn't work as well as we hoped it would, and how we can solve that. 👇🧵1/10 Penn Medicine CHOP Research Saar Gill nature.com/articles/s4159…

🌟Exciting to see this recent work from my time in the Emma Creagh lab published in the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) journal Gastro Hep Advances! We show that epithelial #Caspase4 has utility as a novel tissue-based #biomarker for #earlystage #ColorectalCancer! ➡️ shorturl.at/9kabX
