In the era of @openevidence, @UpToDate, and podcasts (shoutout to @TwoOncDocs and @OncBrothers), all tools I use daily, there’s still something nice about having a practical resource you can carry in clinic or on rounds, especially as an early trainee. 🩺

Plus, the timeless feeling of holding a book 📗

Proud to have contributed as an associate editor for the 4th edition of Pocket Oncology and to help continue this @MSKCancerCenter tradition.

Congrats to @JessieStuart316 and @jimmitti_teysir for the amazing work that went into this edition, alongside @AlexDrilon and @yoninamg.
