Today on #NationalWomenPhysiciansDay we celebrate our extraordinary group of women radiation oncologists whose dedication, compassion, and expertise strengthen our communities and inspire future generations. Thank you, each of you, for all you do!
Never need a reason to throw a party, but 4 new faculty is a good cause for celebration ๐
Welcome to UTSW Rad Onc @AEwongwoMD, @MAliruMDPhD, @LinLZhu & @AkritaMDPhD ๐!
We are excited to welcome Dr. @MAliruMDPhD, our newest clinical faculty! With over a decade of research in nanomedicine, radiosensitization, and tumor targeting, Dr. Aliru's work bridges engineering and oncology to advance precision cancer therapy.
Congrats to our 5 graduating residents: Drs. Maureen Aliru, Ahmed Elamir, Meng-Lun Hsieh, Misha Miljanic, & Steven Montalvo.
Great doctors & even better people!

Thank you for the opportunity to partner Dr. Minoshima and congratulations @MAliruMDPhD on your @RSNA R&E F #resident research grantโwishing you a fruitful inquiry! https://t.co/oEI2eaiz51
I am making nano particles that preferentially target tumor cells and enhance innate immunity. This may have a future impact in the treatment of tumors with little or no specific bio markers for targeting.
Going into the weekend incredibly grateful for receiving the RSNA Resident Research Grant. A big thank you to my mentor @andyzwang, the support from @UTSW_RadOnc & the @RSNA Resident & Fellow Committee for this opportunity!
Humbled and honored to be part of this illustrious group. Canโt do it without great mentors joeltepper @LangerLab@SamuelAchilefu support and my better halfโs support @TiansterZhang

What wonderful time in San Diego with the #MBCO crew surrounded by so many talented and amazing people. 10/10 recommend this for any physician-scientists. Thank you @rosslevinemd, @christine_lovly and Jean Tang for organizing. And thank yku @UTSW_RadOnc for your support!
Back to @MDAndersonNews after an amazing week at @AACR#MBCO workshop in Coronado last week. Thank you @rosslevinemd@christine_lovly and Jean Tang for organizing. Feeling inspired and motivated as I start my postdoc. Highly recommend physician scientist trainees to apply.
What an honor to have @n_laack as @UTSW_RadOnc residency Visiting Professor! Had a fantastic time at dinner last night and her talk on metastatic-site RT in pedi sarcomas today was both informative and inspiring. Thanks for spending time with our residents and peds-onc team! ๐๐พ๐
Today on #NationalWomenPhysiciansDay we are proud to celebrate these ten incredibly talented women physicians in our department for their passion and dedication to our patients and the field of medicine! #WomenInMedicine
