'A fundamental part of doctoring is physician-doctor communication,' he wrote in the essay for Sobti Fellowship, which was established through a gift from UPenn alumnus Rajiv Sobti and Slomi Sobti to provide funding for a recent graduate to conduct independent research in India and administered through the Centre for the Advanced Study of India at UPenn. 'Being able to communicate with anyone independent of age, race, or gender is an important part of establishing successful relationships and providing the best care.

Anatomy of an IRA: The last four years

Posted: Published on July 12th, 2014

When I began writing the It's Only Money column, during the throes of the financial crisis, I surveyed the most authoritative research on investing I could find. I wanted to offer readers reliable, impartial guidance on managing their money. Within a year, I arrived at a simple maxim I've been harping on ever since: The most important way you can improve long-term investment results is to keep costs low. In early 2010, I took my own advice. I moved an IRA I'd had since 1996 from TD Ameritrade over to Vanguard. I liquidated its three actively managed funds and invested that money in lower-cost Vanguard funds. Four years later, the outcome isn't black and white. But I'll tell you why I think I made the right move. See if you agree. Last week, I wrote about the origin and record of that old IRA. It grew at an annualized clip of 6.9 percent. My $8,900 in contributions over nearly 14 years and two sharp downturns more than doubled in value to $19,500 by early 2010. But it left a lot to be desired. Two of its three mutual funds underperformed severely. The stock funds were highly volatile but generated bond-like … Continue reading

Stem cell researcher targets 'seeds' of breast cancer metastasis

Posted: Published on July 12th, 2014

For breast cancer patients, the era of personalized medicine may be just around the corner, thanks to recent advances by USC Stem Cell researcher Min Yu and scientists at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. In a July 11 study in Science, Yu and her colleagues report how they isolated breast cancer cells circulating through the blood streams of six patients. Some of these deadly cancer cells are the "seeds" of metastasis, which travel to and establish secondary tumors in vital organs such as the bone, lungs, liver and brain. Yu and her colleagues managed to expand this small number of cancer cells in the laboratory over a period of more than six months, enabling the identification of new mutations and the evaluation of drug susceptibility. If perfected, this technique could eventually allow doctors to do the same: use cancer cells isolated from patients' blood to monitor the progression of their diseases, pre-test drugs and personalize treatment plans accordingly. In the six estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer patients in the study, the scientists found newly acquired mutations in the estrogen receptor gene (ESR1), PIK3CA gene and fibroblast growth factor receptor gene (FGFR2), among others. They then tested either alone or … Continue reading
