Melissa Salerno, breast cancer researcher at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center

What is your office dress code?
"My office dress code is business casual, but since I meet with patients, I like to dress it up a little bit more. I think it's fun to dress for work and be able to transform that outfit into after work attire."

Tell us a little bit about your job. What do you love most about it?
"I am a breast cancer researcher for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. I meet with Ashkenazi Jewish women who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer and offer them genetic testing to help them make more informed surgical decisions. I love that I get to do research that helps women who are dealing with such a devastating disease. It feels great to have these women use me as a resource in helping them fight breast cancer."

Melissa wears American Apparel trousers, a Ralph Lauren belt, Nine West heels, an H&M shirt, a Zara blazer, and a Hunter bag.
