This is so so sad. I did everything right. Submitted my proposal on time in May 2025. Funds run out in April 2026. Government shutdown prevented timely review. Leaving me no choice but to shutdown my lab in April. 😢💔

Wonderful symposium dinner last night at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando. Wonderful food, engaging conversation, and a special connection between chemists and close friends. 🧪

The worst part for cancer survivors…. Waiting alone in this tiny room for your imaging results! 😳
This is where my journey began 9 years ago…. Hopefully, if my NIH grant is funded, I will continue looking into our body’s ability to prevent metastases by removing the tumor’s protective Cys coating.
