Engineering Cancers End. Our paper outlining an interdisciplinary approach to confront the complexities of cancer was just published in the journal @Cancer_Cell. We proposed that an interdisciplinary team focused on cancer using the methods and principles of #engineering will accelerate #cancerresearch. We illustrated a conceptual framework for Cancer Engineering by arranging 12 cardinal fields around a tumor and envision that these areas work together to make advances and discoveries in cancer. #BioEngineering Read more: bit.ly/4aRjT3U @MoffittNews

The collaboration between BioEngineering and Gyn Oncology was spotlighted at #SGOAM26! Great job presenting, @ErinGeorgeMD.

From innovation to collaboration, Karen Lu, MD (@karenluMD), reflects on her Presidential Address at #SGOAM26 and the shared responsibility to move cancer care forward.

Join Erin George, MD (@ErinGeorgeMD) at #SGO2026 as she explores functional precision oncology in ovarian cancer using patient-derived microtumors. #MoffittSGO @SGO_org

Stop by poster 1504 at #SGOAM26 to see how Moffitt is using a patient-derived microtumor platform to assess therapeutic response and predict patient outcomes.

At the #SGOAM26, Karen Lu, MD (@karenluMD) shared an inspiring presidential address about embracing change. She reminded us that teams make science possible and teams make us stronger as we face change.

That’s a wrap on the 19th annual Business of Biotech conference. Thank you to the 800+ attendees who joined us to collaborate, share insights and drive innovation. We can’t wait to see you next year. #MoffittBoB
