Roberto Borea, Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University, shared on LinkedIn:
“The 10th anniversary of the International Society of Liquid Biopsy has just come to an end, and for me it was already my third!
Sitting in the last session, I started thinking about how different my life was just three years ago.
Since then, I moved to Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute in Dr. Christian Rolfo, my work has grown, and today I have the honor of chairing the ISLB Young Committee.
A lot has changed, but ISLB has always been there. It’s where I learned, where I built my expertise, where many colleagues became friends. It feels like a family, one that gets bigger every year and has helped me grow both as a scientist and as a person.
I think this is what makes ISLB different, especially for young researchers. Here you can share your ideas, ask questions, get challenged, and feel that people truly want you to succeed.
A big thank you to the Executive Committee for the amazing organization, to the other committee chairs, to everyone who was there, and to all the members, past, present and future, who share this journey with me.
And a special thank you to my ISLB Young Committee. Your support throughout the year, across all the webinars, educational programs, projects and ideas we keep bringing to life together, has been incredibly important to me.
Already looking forward to the next one. See you in Bologna for ISLB27!”
