Reminder to join us for our first lunchtime screening of the docuseries "Afro Canada" in GCI Room 501 at noon today!
For #WorldCancerDay, GCI members gathered yesterday. Thanks to Chantal Vadnais @DefiCanderel for speaking, to our student society @gcss_gci for hosting, to Kailyn for pictures, and to all who joined us to celebrate 45 years of making discoveries and changing lives at the GCI!
Mark your calendars for this week's #GCISpotlight 💡 🎙️: Yu Gu, PhD candidate in the Muller lab 🕓: Friday, Jan 27, 4pm 📍: GCI atrium "Who helps the #tumor go from zzz to bzz?": #Osteopontin modulates tumor immune microenvironment-dependent #breastcancer recurrence
💡Join us today at 4pm in the atrium for a special spotlight by GCSS’s own Yu! 💡 And please stick around after for a fun few rounds of trivia with potential GCI recruits 🏆🍺🙋♀️
