Highlighting a paper from @UMichRadOnc physicist @DaleWLitzenberg describing a potential mechanism for the FLASH effect dubbed the ‘Hoover effect’ where oxygen is ‘sucked’ out from the cell nucleus like a vacuum causing hypoxia. You heard it here first!

We've added three new wonderful members to the @UMichRadOnc family 🎉🎉🎉

[Paul Nguyen @DrPaulNguyen]

Thank you @Dan_ChangMD and @UMichRadOnc for the chance to celebrate the legacy of the incredible @felixfengmd whom we all miss so dearly. Wonderful to see @MaryFengMD and @UMRogelCancer friends!

Serendipity brought me to Ann Arbor today for a graduate student thesis defense—just in time for the inaugural Felix Feng Memorial Lecture by Paul Nguyen.

Felix was a brilliant scientist, visionary clinician, and extraordinary mentor, but more than that he was a dear friend. I feel incredibly fortunate to have learned from him and walked a small part of my career alongside him.

His impact on our field—and on those of us lucky enough to know him—will continue to ripple forward. Grateful to celebrate his legacy today. @UMichRadOnc @UMRogelCancer

Special talk this afternoon- The inaugural Felix Feng Visiting Professorship. Dr. Paul Nguyen did phenomenal job highlighting the impact Felix had on so many of us.

Bone mets fractionation is evolving in the state of Michigan! Fewer fractions with MROQC @MichiganCQIs quality measures and incentives, including prior auth exemption.
Grateful for the opportunity to share with the @Advances_ASTRO audience.

Hot off the presses, ReCOG consensus statement endorsed by multiple Rad Onc societies now in @TheLancetOncol. Major step forward for advancing reirradiation. Congrats to authors, in particular @DrKCParadis, @ChuckMayoPhD, @elizapowerpuff.

Radiation therapy isn’t just for cancer. Low-dose radiation is showing promise for certain non-cancer conditions.

@UMichRadOnc's Dr. Borislav Hristov explains who may benefit.
