September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

Why the DOD OCA emphasizes the need for increased collaborations in research. Two heads in front a bench are better than one.

Postdoc opportunity! This is the place to be for cutting-edge research in ovarian cancer with a great mentor Nan Zhang

Amazing representation by @cdmrp Ovarian Cancer Academy ECIs, alumni, mentors, and deans at 15th #HHMT meeting in Surrey, UK! Buckanovich Lab Kate Chiappinelli @chiappinellilab.bsky.social Dmitriy Zamarin MD PhD Denarda Dangaj Sophia George, PhD

Don't miss OCMF's conference Nov 18-19 to ‘ovary-come’ and discuss the challenges in ovarian cancer research with a fantastic lineup of speakers.

It was a real pleasure to serve on Kat Wardrup's thesis committee UMBC. ZNF217 is a great story in ovarian cancer. Congratulations to Kat and her mentor and CDMRP Ovarian Cancer Academy ECI Achuth Padmanabhan on Dr. Wardrup's successful defense!
