Pancreatic cancer researcher and professor Luisa Escobar-Hoyos, MSc, PhD, saw her work hit too close to home when her mother Luz, also a cancer researcher and professor, was diagnosed with one of the world’s toughest cancers. 💜 bit.ly/3ItF5Vk
So, when Dr. Escobar-Hoyos had the opportunity to speak at a Congressional briefing on the importance of federally funded cancer research, she shared how her lab’s research depended on funding from our government — and how her work had become more personal than ever before. 🔬🧫

Yale researchers engineered an antibody, #TMAB3, to carry immune-activating RNA directly to hard-to-treat tumors-shrinking tumors, ⬆️ survival, + avoiding healthy tissue. “This lays the foundation for personalized, tumor-targeted RNA therapies,”@Escobar_Lab.

@Escobar_Lab seeks to develop an anti-RNA splicing therapy with dual action—a targeted therapy against tumor cells coupled with an immunotherapy to restore immune cell anti-tumor activity—to more effectively treat pancreatic cancer patients.

Today I received a letter from
@AACR, but for my surprise me and @Escobar_Lab were highlighted in the news! That was a sweet surprise. Thank you for the support!!
