Ana I. Velázquez Mañana: My highlight of WCLC24
Ana I. Velázquez Mañana shared a post by Estela Rodriguez on X, adding:
“My highlight of WCLC24 here
After years of admiring & reading the work of the Boricua Ciencias Médicas UPR grad who “MADE it” — as faculty Harvard Medical School, Mass General Brigham, as a researcher focused on Lung Cancer screening in Latinos & Puerto Rico, who is a mentor to so many, and a champion of diversity & inclusion — I finally met him!
And the best part is that Narjust Florez is even nicer than I imagined.”
Quoting Estela Rodriguez:
“Boricuas at WCLC24 IASLC – with Narjust Florez, Mass General Brigham, Ana I. Velázquez Mañana, UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Missing Coral Olazagasti, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Joel Rivera Concepcion, Duke Cancer, Latinos In Oncology.”
