From Connection to Collaboration: CancerConnect Builds Bridges to Advance Cancer Research
Over 50 faculty members and trainees from Tulane Cancer Center and the Tulane School of Science & Engineering came together last week for CancerConnect, a networking event designed to spark conversations and support collaboration across the University's cancer-focused community. Attendees were challenged by Dr. Stefan Grant, Director of the Tulane Cancer Center, and Dr. Hridesh Rajan, Dean of the School of Science & Engineering, to make new connections at the event and to think boldly about how interdisciplinary partnerships can advance cancer research. Conversations centered around key themes -- including AI and data science, biomedical engineering, medicinal chemistry, and computational biology -- highlighting exciting opportunities for synergy across schools and disciplines. Thank you to all who joined us for this energizing event. We look forward to seeing the collaborations that grow from these connections and to building even more bridges at future CancerConnect gatherings.
