                                    My Story…                            
            
                                    I am an oncologist focusing on treating advanced melanoma and skin cancers. My research focuses on understanding the role of innate agonists in cancer as well as our gut microbiome in mediating both response, resistance and immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Our work is collaborative, includes members from multiple research groups, spans multiple disciplines and has been published in leading journals.
Outside of work, I am an avid cyclist, and terribly competitive (my wife, who if she recruited you to join this team, can attest to my competitive nature). The money raised from this ride will be used to help researchers like me continue our quest to find treatments and cure cancer.
 
This year, I am leading a team to ride 60 miles along the Great Allegheny Passage - from The Point in Downtown Pittsburgh and heading to Ohiopyle and the Youghiogheny River. I understand that you may be interesting in biking with me, and I invite you to join my team called “Team Melanomore.”
