Our incredible GW University ALCSI team kicked off #LCAM by tabling with #lungcancer #screening resources and walking in the #BreatheDeepTOGETHER 5k!! Thank you LUNGevity Foundation for inviting us to be part of such a powerful gathering of our #lungcancer community 🤍
Thank you Dr. raja flores for your educational and engaging GW Surgery Grand Rounds on The Politics of Lung Cancer Screening! A very insightful examination of the NLST, and highly topical. (And we're all so impressed you worked in a movie quote relevant to lung cancer!) #LCAM
Our division director Keith Mortman, MD, representing STS Advocacy, spent yesterday AM championing improved patient access to lung CA screening and addressing Medicare reform & physician workforce issues. Just another way we are working for our patients!
Our very own Sora Ely, MD spent last Tues advocating with GO2 for Lung Cancer #VoicesSummit on the Hill for increased lung CA screening and research funding. A huge thanks to our co-advocates & Congresspeople, esp Senator Tom Carper who met with us personally!
We are proud to support Cinderella Cares, mewhiney.org, & GO2 for Lung Cancer! Great local and national organizations advocating for and supporting the fight against #lungcancer. cinderellacares.org
Our very own Sora Ely, MD was selected for this year's IASLC Academy and presented her project at the #WCLC24 workshop. Thank you to her mentor Jonathan Spicer MD PhD, and to the whole group for the valuable discussion! Lots of work to be done in this space, now even for early-stage.
