Over three hundred members and guests of The Pap Corps Champions for Cancer Research, gathered at Broken Sound Country Club for our monthly “Breakfast with the Doctor”, featuring guest speaker Doctor Ashish Shah. Dr. Shah is an Assistant Professor of Neurological surgery, and a Neurosurgeon specializing in Neuro-Oncology at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine.
Dr. Shah whose family emigrated from India to South Texas and then to Florida, gave insight into his journey of brain cancer research. Mentoring in Haiti, he fostered a lifelong interest in people suffering from severe brain tumors, which led him to pursue his research to finding treatment and solutions for patients through clinical trials at Sylvester.
During his presentation Dr. Shah shared the latest developments in brain cancer research emphasizing the importance of continued research and innovation.
The breakfast provided The Pap Corps members and guests with the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the progress being made in clinical trials and the importance of supporting scientific research.
