Abhishek Shankar: UICC ICRETT Fellowship from June 17th to July 14th, 2024

Abhishek Shankar, Associate Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, recently shared on LinkedIn:

“I am thrilled to share that I will be in New York for prestigious UICC ICRETT Fellowship from June 17th to July 14th, 2024. I will be working at Columbia University in New York, with Professor Samuel SIA.

During this fellowship, I will focus on Biomarker-based Lung Cancer Screening using point-of-care device through liquid biopsy.

This cutting-edge approach aims to revolutionize early detection of lung cancer, offering a non-invasive, efficient, and cost-effective solution.

By utilizing biomarkers present in bodily fluids, we can potentially identify cancer at its earliest stages, significantly improving patient outcomes and survival rates.

I am immensely grateful for this opportunity to work alongside leading experts in the field and contribute to groundbreaking advancements in cancer research.

This experience will not only enhance my knowledge and skills but also empower me to bring innovative solutions to our healthcare community.

Together, we can make strides towards a future where early detection and effective treatment of lung cancer are accessible to all.”
