Ok Fumiko Ladd Chino, MD, FASCO, I decided not to fully unpack but here is my conf closet for #ASCO24. Notice the lack of shoe choices this year. I kinda regretted that choice. Might have to remedy that at #ASTRO24. But glad we both got the “green” memo. #ConferenceCouture

Dr. Kristina Woodhouse did her ASCO fellowship w/me when I was Mass General Cancer Center & is now an Onc leader Merck. Kekoa Taparra, MD, PhD, MPH was an ASTRO minority fellow & is revolutionizing how we address #cancer inequities for Pacific Islanders. #Diversity training grants work!😍#Moonshot

Grief is multi-faceted. It comes in waves. Can be applied to the loss of a loved one or loss of a job. Is felt my #cancer survivors as they mourn losing faith in their body. See this brief #DrWinkfield #Facebook post on how to manage #grief facebook.com/share/p/ETXoNT…

So surreal to be sitting here about to view this documentary film that I had the honor of being a part of. American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network & Black Voters Matter Fund partnered with film director, Ashley O’Shay, to tell the story of families caught in the gap in the 10 states that have not expanded #medicaid

There are still 10 states that have not expanded #Medicaid. Why? Don’t all #Americans deserve to have the most basic #healthcare needs met?? Please join us tonight for the very first virtual screening event for the landmark film “In Due Season”
