Meet Mr. Adan Reinosa Rivera, a colorectal cancer survivor & our 1st participant in our ENLACE study @USCCOPECC. He was profiled @theNCI and shared “I’m confident that scientists will learn something from my tumor that will help someone else with colorectal cancer, if not me”🥰
Colorectal cancer hurts a lot of Latinos.
Adan Reinosa Rivera, a retired electrical engineer in L.A., is doing his part to change that! 👏🏽
