Dr. Lincoln Nadauld, executive director of Intermountain Precision Genomics, and three Dixie State University students will present about contributions to cutting-edge cancer genomics research taking place at Stanford University during the next Dixie Forum.
Nadauld and students Annie Bowles, Jesus Soto, and Darren Stapleton will share about current and developing therapies for cancer treatments from noon to 12:50 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 28. The lecture will take place in the Dunford Auditorium of the Browning Resource Center on the DSU campus. The event is free and open to the public.
The Dixie Forum presentation will dive into the details of DSU’s and Intermountain Healthcare/Dixie Regional Medical Center’s partnership to send DSU students to the Stanford University Undergraduate Summer Research Program each year. Now in its fourth year, the program allows DSU students to work directly with scientists in biomedical research and help pursue discoveries that advance scientists’ understanding of the human body.
Dixie Forum is a weekly lecture series designed to introduce the St. George community and DSU students, faculty, and staff to diverse ideas and personalities while widening their worldviews via a 50-minute presentation. Dixie Forum will continue with a presentation from Alexander Stimpson, senior research scientist at Duke University, on drones and other autonomous systems at noon on Tuesday, March 7, in the Dunford Auditorium.
More information on DSU’s Dixie Forum series is available from forum coordinator John Burns at (435) 879-4712 or burns@dixie.edu or at humanities.dixie.edu/the-dixie-forum.
