In 2014, my mother tested positive for Lynch Syndrome, which is a hereditary disease that is linked with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. I was also tested. My results also came back positive. Since then, I have worked to inform family members to get tested for Lynch Syndrome and have reoriented my career focus. I am currently working on my Ph.D. on the development of combination therapies, immunotherapies, and cell preservation.”
