This work lead by former Fernández lab member, Dr. Samyukta Sah, and current student, Elisabeth Schwiebert, entitled “Metabolomics of Papanicolaou Tests for the Discovery of Ovarian Cancer Biomarkers”, was published in metabolites. This work is the first, to our knowledge, to evaluate residual Papanicolaou (Pap) tests as a potential biospecimen for metabolomics and lipidomics studies. In this first-stage, feasibility study, we were able to detect and annotate numerous lipid species in all of our non-cancerous samples that we plan to compare to cancerous samples in future.
