The end of the “Amber” era. The culmination of 3 years working together… It has been fun and I learned a lot from Dr. Gallanis. She is going to be a leader in Surgical Oncology - so watch out! @GUH_WHCSurgRes @SocSurgOnc @AmberFGallanis #CDH1

Incredibly grateful to @JeremyLDavisMD for bringing me on this project and all the work that @AmberFGallanis did to ensure this crossed the finish line. Super excited to see how this project impacts the care for individuals with CDHI1 germline mutation.
Among individuals with a CDH1 gene variant, the risk of gastric cancer was lower than previously described, while risk of female breast cancer was similar to previous estimates. https://t.co/u0gxI2K4d4
