The aim of the group was to "provide an opportunity for SGIM members to meet others with interests in cancer-related research, exchange ideas for proposals, discuss potential funding sources, form research collaborations, and identify mentors." She later received the 2014 Saul Horowitz, Jr. Memorial Award from her alma mater, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and was elected a Fellow of the American College of Physicians.
