Dr. Jay Sarthy had three objectives for the one-day seminar, “Conquering Chromatin in Childhood Cancers,” he hosted June 5 at the Seattle Children’s Research Institute: Convene local and national experts; highlight research conducted at the institute’s Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research; and have fun.
It appears he accomplished all three.
“I’ve heard from several colleagues around the nation asking, ‘What happened at your conference in Seattle? Sounds like you laughed as much as you learned,’” said Sarthy, a clinician and researcher at Seattle Children’s. “Indeed, the symposium’s presenters and attendees laughed a great deal during the day, while gaining new insights on childhood cancers.”
