🔥Hot Topic Alert🔥
Check out our new article by @KengLam6 @lewisnasr @NazMajd @AshleyAaroe & team on proton craniospinal irradiation (pCSI) for leptomeningeal metastases (LM).

How effective is pCSI in reducing RT toxicity? Improving survival when compared to involved-field RT?

Today's Nobel is a reminder to focus on the work and not the journal. The key publications cited by the committee were published in Immunity, Molecular Therapy, and Nucleic Acids Research. Respectable journals, but not the Big 3. The discoveries are what's important, not a name.
