Our oral presentation at #ASCO2025 today: environmental burden isn’t just a health hazard - it’s a cancer risk. Counties with higher pollution burden see more cancer, especially lung cancer. Calls for policy action to address environmental justice. UAB O'Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center Azar Abadi

🧨 Slow news day? Here’s a PSA with purpose: ASCO Quality Care abstracts are due June 10. Got a trainee doing equity, policy, or QI work? Tell them to apply for a Merit Award (CV + LOR). It gives funding, visibility & momentum. Here’s how it helped me: 🔗 connection.asco.org/do/transform-y…

Great work from Mary Shannon with disappointing results: ~1000 recent medical debt lawsuits in St Louis, with low SES neighborhoods bearing the brunt of the legal action. Qasim Hussaini, MD & I had the opportunity to call out this predatory practice & call for change.
