In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Anil K. Sood to discuss novel high-grade serous ovarian morphologic classification. Dr. Sood is a Professor in the Department of Gynecologic Oncology and Reproductive Medicine at the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center. He is Co-Director of the multi-disciplinary Blanton-Davis Ovarian Cancer Research Program and co-leads the Ovarian Cancer Moonshot Program.

Highlights:
- High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) could be classified into two gross morphologic subtypes.
- Type I and type II morphologic subtypes differed with respect to clinical outcomes.
- The two morphologic subtypes also differed with regard to transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic profiles.
