Check out @LunaStockmannโs amazing explanation of her research, why her research question is so important, and what sheโs doing to help uncover kinder cancer treatments.
๐ฌ How do a sniffer dog and a detective inspire smarter, kinder cancer treatments? @LunaStockmann's OvaLoad project is bringing us closer to new, better, smarter, kinder, and more effective ways to treat ovarian cancer. ๐ฅ https://t.co/B66xkI7dLN
