I am so impressed by Sally Nijim and the incredible work that she has led over the last year as she’s served as my Chief of Staff and Biomedical Leadership Fellow! She has helped to accelerate progress for the Castleman Disease Collaborative Network, Every Cure, and my Center at University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine including helping to define a relatively new rare neurodevelopmental disorder called TCF7L2-related neurodevelopmental disorder. Was so proud to see her recognized as the top presenter at the The BRAIN Foundation annual meeting! Can’t wait to follow her progress - and find more ways to work together - as she completes her MD/MBA at Penn and Wharton!
Synchrony 2024 Highlight: Congratulations to Sally Nijim, the winner of Synchrony 2024 'Best Research Presentation' $5,000 award for her talk 'Clinical Characterization of TCF7L2-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder (TRND) in 75 Patients, the Largest Cohort Reported to Date'. Sally is the Chief of Staff and Biomedical Leadership Fellow for Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, MBA, MSc's team at the Castleman Disease Collaborative Network (CDCN), the Center for Cytokine Storm Treatment & Laboratory (CSTL), and Every Cure.
