My bestie @DanielDickstein doing amazing things! So happy to be part of this initiative to foster inclusive cancer care discussions for sexual/gender minorities. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

[Nature Reviews Urology @NatRevUrol]

This fantastic new Review discusses the prostate as a sexual organ & how treatment for prostate cancer can affect quality of life in people from sexual and gender minorities, especially those who engage in receptive anal intercourse. Read it here: https://t.co/EAFDtUugsf

Congratulations to Kayla Daniell and Madhav Patel! We are so excited to learn from and work with you to tailor your individual training and development. What an exciting day for everyone matching into #Radonc! #Match2023

[Matthew Gallitto, MD PhD @MGallittoMD]

Thank you @DrJohnSuh for your amazing CNS lecture this morning @ColumbiaRadOnc. You are a tremendous inspiration - here is a photo of us residents after (barely) surviving one of your legendary mock oral board exams😅. Thank you for taking so much time to teach us!

[Cheng-Chia Wu @DrWuRadOnc]

Dear radonc colleagues, focused ultrasound uses non-ionizing acoustic radiation to open the blood brain barrier. The field of #radonc should be involved to help accelerate the field! Immobilization, dosimetry, physics, QA, intensity modulation, image guidance to name a few!
