The 2024 O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center Annual Retreat

In October, members of the lab attended the O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center Retreat that was held at Regions Field. The retreat included incredible talks by students, faculty, and keynote speakers. Students in the lab were able to present posters showcasing the incredible work they have completed as part of their training. Amr, shown holding his award on the right, was given the award for Best Research in Women’s Cancer!
