Can one person really make a long-lasting difference?

In 1978, Jadav Payeng began planting a tree every day for 37 years —results are stunning

We applaud the @US_FDA’s new restrictions on the sale of #ecigarettes to adolescents: https://t.co/RFzDFYIeoY #CancerMoonshot #endcancer

Today's actions by the @US_FDA represent a significant step toward protecting the health of our future generations. We at @MDAndersonNews support measures to prevent young people from developing a lifetime of addiction to nicotine. #endcancer

And folks, please do NOT switch to keto diets ALONE without the PI3 kinase inhibitor, or without medical supervision or evidence. In our paper, leukemia ACCELERATES with keto diet alone. Please follow the data from our study https://t.co/iAqnnt2ScQ

Exosomes a treasure trove of biomarkers. A few diagnostic robust companies in that space

[Peter WT Pisters, MD @ppisters]

Our success is dependent on the success and servant leadership in each of @MDAndersonNews mission areas: Patient Care, Research, Education & Prevention. I’m committed to spending my time in all of these areas, equally, as we work toward our exciting future. #SOTI #OneMDAnderson

[Hubble @NASAHubble]

Using archived Hubble images, astronomers think they've made the first identification of a star that produced a kind of supernova known as a Type Ic. The source of the explosion was likely a blue supergiant star, as depicted in this artist's illustration: https://t.co/N3v9n2JU2Q

These “superfoods” offer some very important nutrients that can power-pack your meals and snacks, and further enhance a healthy eating pattern. #HarvardHealth #nutrition https://t.co/dvdEVzW7yl

E-cigarettes, vape pens and JUUL are often marketed as safe alternatives to cigarettes. But they're not safe for kids.

Here's what @ErnestHawkMD and @JenniferCofer recommend you tell your kids about e-cigarettes. #endcancer

As Americans, one of our basic rights that was enlarged by several Constitutional Amendments, is the right to vote. Today, in celebration of freedom, I exercised that right in fulfillment of my civic duty. A large proportion of humanity is not free to do what I did today. #Vote

Direct mutant KRAS binding inhibitor to enter the clinic.
The direct inhibitor binds to G12C so applicable to #LungCancer & #ColonCancer but NOT #PancreaticCancer

Weekend Reading: A very thoughtful essay by @bizzwrite on some of what I derive from reading as a leader. In many respects, I see myself as a Chief Reading Officer constantly learning and testing new ideas for @MDAndersonNews through voracious reading. https://t.co/dY39upWJjX

[Robert J. Mahoney, MD @mahoneyr]

I don't really want to hear more about "resilience" in preventing physician burnout.

Folks who have made it through pre-med, med school, internship, and residency are definitionally resilient.

Burnout is about entirely different issues.

Great conversation about advancing #cancer research, care and prevention at @MDAndersonNews's #BidenCancerSummit. Thanks to @OtisBrawley @KBDeSalvo @singh_immatics @13Damion @WTereffeMD @CarinHagberg and the rest of our participants for joining us. Together, we can #endcancer.
