Laura Vazquez, Clinical Research Coordinator at Penn State College of Medicine shared a post on LinkedIn:
“I am excited to share that our case report has been published in Frontiers-Oncology!
This work focuses on the use of precision medicine to identify treatment options for a pediatric cancer patient who had exhausted standard-of-care therapies. I first became involved in this project during my 2023 summer research internship, and I am grateful to have stayed involved through the writing, revision, and publication process as first author.
Thank you so much to my co-authors and mentors for their guidance, collaboration, and support throughout this project.”
