Yesterday, we wete joined by Joanne Tuohy, DVM, PhD on OsteoBites to discuss, "The ablative and immunomodulatory effects of histotripsy treatment in osteosarcoma". Watch the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/g_Hn8dCa Joanne Tuohy is an associate professor of surgical oncology at the Animal Cancer Care and Research Center at Virginia Tech. Her research focuses on developing a novel tumor ablation technique, histotripsy, as a non-invasive method of tumor elimination, and as an immunomodulatory therapy that can induce synergism with immunotherapies. Joanne Tuohy has focused her work primarily on osteosarcoma to improve treatments and disease outcomes for patients. Her tumor ablation research is also expanding to include other tumor types such as oral tumors. Joanne Tuohy went to Colorado State University for her DVM education, followed by a rotating internship and surgical residency at North Carolina State University. She also completed a Comparative Biomedical Sciences PhD program in Immunology at North Carolina State University. Joanne Tuohy completed her training as a Fellow in Surgical Oncology at Colorado State University. Joanne Tuohy started her faculty career at Virginia Tech in 2019 and is a member of the Animal Cancer Care and Research Center at Virginia Tech.

MIB Agents Founder and the MIB Junior Advisory Board: Story Below
MIB Agents ExecDir/Founder, NCCN Bone Tumor Panelist, SARC Board Member, Accelerate FAIR Group, & Osteosarcoma Survivor (Knocking on Wood)
Not long ago, I was a 43-year-old facing a childhood cancer, osteosarcoma, surrounded by very sick kids with the same diagnosis in a pediatric cancer center. We shared a sense of helplessness, knowing there were no second-line treatment options if the initial ones failed. Fast-forward to last Friday: I was honored to be at the White House representing kids with cancer at the Biden Cancer Moonshot Roundtable for Childhood Cancer, where the mission-driven collaborative people around the table made real progress. Best meeting yet! Simultaneously, our incredible MIB Agents Junior Advisory Board was on Capitol Hill, advocating for the Give Kids a Chance Act and the Creating Hope Reauthorization Act. Today, those bills passed the House! This victory is a testament to the power of hope, perseverance, and advocacy. Thank you to the #CancerMoonshot Team, the House of Representatives, KIDS V CANCER, Nancy Goodman, and our extraordinary JAB members. You've turned helplessness into hope, and we're forever grateful. #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth Scott Carter Foundation - 💛 John Graham - I get to have you to Make It Better in every way ❤️ .
