Excited to be with our amazing ALCSI & MGH teams at the Joseph R. Betancourt Health fair with James ‘Jimmy’ Hills. Congrats to Dr. Rick Lee (Rick Lee 이재방) for putting on such a great event!! It’s still happening right now (ends at 3pm, Roxbury Community College, building 3).


Congrats Brooks Udelsman! Tumor size is a continuous variable. Path measurements are often rounded up/down to nearest 0.5cm. These cut offs impact stage and adjuvant therapy. ➡️ We should care less about arbitrary size cut offs and more about biology for adjuvant therapy decisions.


Waking up thankful for the support of Rick Lee 이재방 In 2021 he stepped in to garner support for our first health fair. Yesterday, three years later, he’s still supporting community health. That’s why we’ve named an award in his honor. The Dr. Rick Lee Community Health Award




Drew Moghanaki Jeff Yang MD FACS JAMA Internal Medicine Well here’s our answer… My only hope is that they rejected our letter and at least one other letter that I am aware of from reputable authors because they plan on publishing other similarly critical and evidence-based responses. We’ll see…


Incredibly proud of Justin A. Olivera, MD who graduated from Albert Einstein College of Medicine - Official! Seems like yesterday I met you - you’ve impressed me greatly with your intelligence, energy, and resolve. Excited for you to take the next steps at MGH. “You are off to Great Places”. Andrea Wolf bonus!



📣Missed our event with Dr. Hassan Tetteh at Harvard Countway Library? 📺 Now you can watch it on C-SPAN BOOK-TV airing June 1 & 2 at 2PM EST! c-span.org/event/book-tv/…



More great news! Dr. Jamie Ostroff Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and I were selected to receive the 2025 Community Engagement Weill Cornell CTSC Pilot Award! Can’t wait to carry out this project with the fantastic ALCSI team! 🤍🫁



Loved meeting the The University of Chicago ALCSI members Natalie and Rico this month at #ASCO25 to discuss the importance of #lungcancerscreening . The future is bright when we have wonderful young people who are trying to make it better. #lcsm Jeff Yang MD FACS

Today, our Boston team joined the Mass General Brigham #CommunityCareVans again in the Boston Commons! We are grateful for the opportunity to be involved in this amazing initiative to raise awareness for #lungcancerscreening!


Thank you to Live Lung LiveLung for highlighting the need to expand lung cancer screening criteria - to help capture ALL “at risk” individuals, while balancing the risks of potential harm or false positives. Raymond Osarogiagbon, MBBS, FACP Nasser Hanna Michael Gieske, M.D. Jeff Yang MD FACS ALCSI
