After 11 years of patience and perseverance in the lab, Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green’s groundbreaking laser technology cancer treatment, which induces 100 percent tumor regression in mice, is having its day in the sun. She was recently awarded a $1 million grant from the Veterans Affairs’ Office of Research & Development to take her findings to clinical trials. The young assistant professor at Atlanta’s Morehouse School of Medicine Department of Physiology is not your typical lab rat. She’s graceful and elegant in one moment, bubbly and playful the next, then she’s back in the lab, forging through the complexities of one of the most challenging diseases of our time. We are honored to welcome today’s FACE of the South, Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green.
