SEARCH for CAYAHL
As part of this International collaborative group, Dr. Gowdy is leading a systematic review into the role of metabolic PET parameters to act as a biomarker of disease for children and young adults with Hodgkin lymphoma to aid upfront risk stratification and direct clinicians to those high-risk individuals who may benefit from intensification of therapy.PETool
Train and validate an automated segmentation technique using an AI tool developed at UBC to delineate disease in children and young adults with lymphoma. Use the segmentations to calculate metabolic PET parameters and radiomic features as we work to identify biomarkers of disease which can stage and evaluate response of disease to therapy.Honours & Awards2025 - Patient Champion, Medical Staff Committee
Unlocking the mystery of nephrotic syndrome in kids: Q&A with new investigator Dr. Susan Samuel
Pediatric nephrologist Dr. Susan Samuel, a new investigator who joined BCCHR in September 2024, has been investigating ways to improve the quality of life of children diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome. She is serving as the director for the ENRICH program, a national network of mentors and learners. We met Dr. Samuel to talk about the importance of research and mentorship.
