Please explain your innovative research, project, or idea

Cancers are genetically heterogeneous. Current sampling methods often fail to account for tumor heterogeneity. Failng to account for heterogeneity may contribute to inadequate therapeutic decisions and treatment failures.

Why should everyone know about your idea? How will it reach beyond your work & benefit the community?

Tumor heterogeneity has far-reaching implications in management of cancer cases. By characterizing tumor heterogeneity within a single patient's cancer, we can increase treatment accuracy and effectiveness.

Do you have any previous speaking experience? If so, please explain

Yes. I have taught introductory statistics courses for six semesters. These courses have three fifty-minute lectures per week. I have also given several department-wide seminars of 25 to 50 minutes duration.
