A lot of people think of translational research as a linear process that goes, in the famous phrase, from the bench to bedside. But it’s more of a circular process that includes the lab, the patient, the community and legislation. It’s my job to help facilitate that. A lot of that entails helping people develop new partnerships and connections. I’m a bit of a matchmaker. 🔗 Read our Q&A to learn more about Dr. Figueroa's work as a professor at the Miller School of Medicine and her contributions to research at Sylvester: https://loom.ly/emDBFK0
