Our study is out today in @NatureComms ! We analyzed cancer genomes from patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and found early copy number gain of the mutant allele of TP53 to be a characteristic feature of these tumours. https://t.co/QA3zXHTKGG

Amazing to watch this study grow over the past 7+ years. Congrats to the entire KiCS program!

Tone deaf.
-highlighting perceived successes
-normalizing ER closures
-deferring responsibility to others
-no plan

[Dr. Brian Goldman @NightShiftMD]

This is absolutely unprecedented. You can’t keep asking for volunteers to step up. Health care workers require breaks from work.

This arrived in the inbox of a Dr friend of mine today. Toronto Western Hospital is desperate for “extenders” to staff the ER this weekend because they can’t find enough nurses.

Our system is collapsing.
