“Unlike other types of breast cancer, inflammatory breast cancer doesn’t usually show up as a lump or appear on a screening mammogram,” says our Wendy Woodward MDPhD.

Here, she shares how to get an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment: brnw.ch/21wJA08 #BCSM #EndCancer

Here are the slides from the ORATOR2 trial. Key takeaways (short 🧵)

- RT meets primary endpoint compared to historical control
- OS and PFS significantly better in RT arm.

You won’t meet an oncologist more committed to patient care than my friend, sister, mentor, leader and colleague MD Anderson Cancer Center Bouthaina Dabaja MD. You set the bar so high for all of us & we are grateful. Congratulations on the Faculty Achievement Award in Patient Care.

Agreed - both Stephanie Dudzinski and Rehema J. Thomas, MD would be extraordinary advocates and resident leaders for our field on the ARRO executive committee! So many great candidates :) #womenwhocurie #radonc ROECSG (Rad Onc Education Collab Study Group) ASTRO MD Anderson Cancer Center

The best mentors are highly available and resourceful. When you find one, hold on!

For example, I bounced some thoughts off my undergrad mentor Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) this morning. He’s as accessible as ever and dropping pearls of wisdom just like he did when I was a college student.

Even after some time to process Cullen Taniguchi, MD's unexpected passing, still have no words. His impact was immense. Appreciate all the widespread tributes from colleagues and friends. We lost a good one. MD Anderson Cancer Center #radonc , #endcancer

Heartbroken to hear devastating news that Cullen Taniguchi died suddenly. A brilliant physician-scientist in #radonc , who made impacful discoveries, was an inspiring mentor, and elevated everyone around him. My condolences to his family & his friends & colleagues MD Anderson Cancer Center

So happy to celebrate #WeWhoCurie day with my MD Anderson Cancer Center #radonc family! SWRO ASTRO ARRO ROECSG (Rad Onc Education Collab Study Group)

Humbled to attend the The Breast Cancer Research Foundation Scientific Conference, Symposium, and Awards Luncheon as a BCRF Investigator. I am so grateful for the ASTRO-BCRF Career Development Award to support our #radonc research at MD Anderson Cancer Center - and so inspired by all here, especially Olufunmilayo Olopade!
