Congratulations to #WelchGrantee Maralice Conacci-Sorrell Conacci-Sorell @Sorrell_Lab at @UTSWMedCenter for receiving the 2026 Mary Beth Maddow Award from @TAMESTX. The Maddox Award recognizes women scientists that have made an impact in cancer research. Her work studies how cancer genes alter nutrient utilization and protein synthesis, and target strategies to disrupt tumor growth. As quoted by her colleague at UTSW Steven Kliewer, “Maralice has done highly innovative research in the cancer field and is an extraordinary educator and mentor." utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/artic…
