Access to advanced cancer care shouldn't depend on where you live. That’s why @UPMCHillmanCC has brought the latest theranostic treatments to UPMC Altoona. Partnering w/local rad/onc & nuclear med teams, we have treated our 1st 5 patients! Just the beginning! @PittHealthSci

It has been great mentoring Vignesh and Abhay who are both outstanding undergraduate students at Pitt. I’m proud of both of their accomplishments and really happy that Abhay’s hard work was recognized at the AACR undergraduate student poster competition.
Congrats to Abhay Sheeri (@asheeri25) in @RPatelMDPHD lab - FIRST PLACE in #AACR24 Undergraduate Poster Competition! Congrats to Vignesh Elangovan also selected to present! @UPMCnews @PittHealthSci @HSkinnerMDPhD @UPMCPhysicianEd
