80 publications, researching and developing novel therapies for difficult-to-treat and rare diseases, and building a topnotch gastrointestinal oncology program - all while battling cancer!! We lost a brilliant and immensely hard-working soul. May she rest in peace, Om Shanti. Condolences to her family and friends.

If anyone's interested, we can contribute to her legacy and dreams through this foundation!

She was my aunt’s best friend. Just attended her funeral. Didn’t know her well but her impact was immense on my aunt
