There are numerous opportunities for residents to become involved in research and scholarly activities. Residents can select elective time to do research. Our family are excited to work with residents on various projects. Travel funds are available for residents to attend national meetings if they are presenting poster or giving oral presentations. Below is a list of the poster presented at Tufts GLOW week and some featured residents and their projects.

Resident: Jeffrey Lin, MD, PhD
Project Title: A Bispecific Antibody Targeting the αv and α5β1 Integrins in Prostate Cancer
Description: We performed RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analyses to characterize changes in gene expression and chromatin landscape following treatment of human prostate and breast cancer cell lines with a bispecific integrin-targeting antibody. Used 18-color flow cytometry to characterize changes in the tumor immune microenvironment following treatment in xenograft mouse models.
Mentor(s): Paul Mathew
Resident: Radhika Ghosalkar, MD
Project Title: Indexing Aortic Dimensions Using Ideal Body Weight Significantly Reclassifies Aortic Dilation in Overweight and Obese Patients
Description: We examined the use of ideal body weight (IBW) in lieu of actual body weight for indexing the proximal and ascending aorta on transthoracic echocardiographs. We found that indexing to IBW reclassified a significant proportion of overweight and obese patients from non-dilated to dilated aortic dimensions.
Mentor(s): Brian Downey, Benjamin Wessler, Ayan Patel
Resident: Kevin John, MD
Project Title: Comparison of Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation and Premembranous Venous Oxygen Saturation in Patients on Peripheral Venous-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Description: We tested the hypothesis that pre-membranous oxygen saturation can be used as a surrogate for mixed-venous oxygen saturation in cardiogenic shock patients on V-A ECMO.
Mentor(s): Haval Chweich, Navin Kapur
Resident: Xia (Yaya) Wu, MD
Project Title: Using next generation sequencing to identify trackable clonotypic sequences for minimal residual disease testing in AL amyloidosis
Description: We evaluated the feasibility of using next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify trackable clonotypical sequences for minimal residual disease (MRD) testing in patients with AL amyloidosis. By retrospectively analyzing NGS results and clinical data, we determined the efficacy and potential of NGS in providing accurate and reliable MRD detection in AL amyloidosis.
