@jryckman3 @KColvett @drmattmc I’m not so sure about that. While the big 3 increased residency slots by 1 when marginal programs were exploding, they have since retracted back to their historical median. I don’t think they are the problem.

@DrEmmaHolliday @RO_Institute @BenjaminSchrank @MDAndersonNews I can’t wait for a flat 5k at sea level! Working on my base with a turkey trot this morning.

I asked #ChatGPT to explain #radonc in the style of Dr. Seuss. My mind is blown, AI wrote this in about 5 seconds. Is this skynet?

@PDBrownOnc Any thoughts on memantine for GBM or lower grade gliomas with target volumes near hippocampus?

@DrEmmaHolliday I was just commenting yesterday about my badass residency friend, who has 4 kids, is a fantastic and artistic baker, runs 10+ miles a day (guessing), AND is a phenomenal physician!

@IBCradiation Congratulations!

@IBCradiation Would you consider offering anti estrogen off trial in premenopausal patient with late brain only relapse 5 yrs after PMRT, PDL1 low?

[Mark Edson @MarkEdsonMDPhD]

Really, this is the standard? I wanted to send a patient a link with more information on breast radiation but I consider this misinformation. It’s time for @AmericanCancer to update their patient information to be in line with @NCCN guidelines

@fumikochino @WebMD @ThePinkFund @SurThrivorGirl @EChrisDee @joshuapalmermd @kelseycorrigan A very important topic but worth noting costs of cancer care to patients and payers at tertiary cancer centers are often much higher than in the community : https://t.co/rBAg2eys1H

@DrEmmaHolliday I would love to join the MD Anderson team and plan on attending San Diego Astro!

[Mark Edson @MarkEdsonMDPhD]

@cwspeers @UMichRadOnc @UHhospitals @RadoncUh @DrSpratticus @amandaaminmd Congrats!!

This is as simply as I can put it:

Despite repeated warnings, the public remains perilously unresponsive to the catastrophically escalating situation along the Colorado River.

Anybody else fed up with moments of silence that ring hollow? It’s time for moments of action. @NYSE please back up your moment of silence with $ to fight the gun lobby. Parents shouldn’t have to fear sending their kids to school.

[Mark Edson @MarkEdsonMDPhD]

@LibbyMbc Do not delay letting your oncologist know. You could have tumor pressing on your spinal cord or nerve roots.

@IBCradiation @IshwariaMD Traveled for spring break last week, set OOO as “I will not be checking email,” and left my work phone at home. Got back on Sunday and resisted the urge to check in until officially back at work on Monday. Guess what—the world keeps turning in our absence.🙂

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Some of the same people who won’t help defeat gun violence so our children won’t have to endure active shooter drills and actual massacres believe that learning about racism is traumatizing.

@MarkELindsay My mask opinion is supporting this cause. Sad that parents are willing to play with children's lives over masks. https://t.co/3aj80YHJxF
