This cancer researcher improves health in Appalachia

Electra Paskett’s outreach to rural communities is making a difference in cancer health equity and how quickly people get help. The Tressels support her work.

Pausing in an Ohio State building hallway, Electra Paskett speaks with two colleagues. She's a white woman with short hair, glasses and a stylish suit; to her right is a Black woman with short hair and to Electra's left is a tall white man in an Ohio State fleece sweatshirt. They seem invested in their conversation.
