This is, without a doubt, one of most thoughtful reviews I have read on the subject of biological underpinnings of therapeutic resistance in #PancreaticCancer. m.genesdev.cshlp.org/content/early/… In Genes & Development by Diane M. Simeone, MD Lyssiotis Lab & Gregory Beatty Beatty Lab.

The best way to get honest feedback is to reward people for giving it. If you make it hard to tell you the truth, people take the easy way out. When people have the courage to be candid, you can reinforce it with gratitude and curiosity. tedtalks.social/WLAdam Mellody Hobson

Congratulations Robert Higgins, MD, MSHA on your new role at Brigham and Women's Hospital. THANK YOU for your leadership & countless contributions to Hopkins Surgery & Johns Hopkins Medicine. We will miss you!

Congratulations to Dannielle Engle, PhD, the recipient of the 2021 Lustgarten Foundation-AACR Career Development Award for Pancreatic Cancer Research, in Honor of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We look forward to her findings on the role of CA19-9 in mediating PDA metastatic dissemination.
