In our new editorial in Journal of Clinical Oncology, Dr Gabrielle and I explore glaring gaps and policy oversights in Medicare’s Low Income Subsidy (LIS) program in cancer care. Accompanying Mitchell et al Aaron Mitchell’s excellent JCO study, we dive into why policy reform is urgently needed🧵

I'm incredibly honored to receive the ASCO Conquer Cancer, the ASCO Foundation Advanced Clinical Research Award. With this funding, we will improve the care of underrepresented older women with breast cancer in Colorado! CU Cancer Center CU Anschutz Medical Campus #gerionc #ASCO25 conquer.org/news/conquer-c…
