A bittersweet day and the end of an era — my last day in the Amankulor Lab. In February 2021, I moved from Munich Universität München to Pittsburgh UPMC Hillman Cancer Center where Nduka Amankulor, MD graciously brought me into the lab and under his wing for my master’s thesis. 🧵

I dont mix family and X but can’t help being proud of my son Noah Amankulor joining the #twitterverse on his NCAA Soccer recruiting journey. Same message to Noah as i give my Penn Neurosurgery residents. Work hard, be humble, and never fear failure. FC DELCO
