Thoughts and prayers to the family of the CEO of UnitedHealthcare

For those interested, I encourage you to read our paper at https://t.co/PDwclqpyHy. Together, let’s work towards a future where cancer care is about the clinical outcomes as much as protecting the financial well-being of our patients. #PatientCenteredCare #ESMO 2/2

I am deeply grateful to the Italian Medical Oncology Society (AIOM) for inviting me to deliver a Lettura magistrale at their 21st Annual Conference in Bologna, Italy. https://t.co/yoLECVtb2I

Heidelberg is some distance from Potsdam. (And, there are other leading cancer centers in Europe.) But, yeah, there’s always this special place that we gotta return to #queenoftears

A #win in the fight against #junkfood feeding and #cancerprevention albeit (from @AP) the target of ⁦@CarrefourGroup⁩ is food #inflation and price hikes by PepsiCo. https://t.co/2auUeqJMeV

Flying @Delta for Christmas, I asked the FA for non-alcoholic wine and the retort I got was “we have sparkling water”. I was genuinely surprised that such was not an option given the changing demand in Europe for beverages & the effect of #drinking while flying #cancerprevention

Its both interesting and sad that how seemingly lost in the “discussion” on the asking of Sam + Greg from as top honchos the mission of the company and its governance structure designed to ensure that the company does not stray from it. It’s worse for openai if its board resigns

Sugary drink for empty calories ✅ carcinogenic processed meat ✅ fatty, salty deep fried sides ✅ #chronicillness #obesity #cancer

In Canada, there is no sugar coating that cigarette is 'poison in every puff' (from @AP). Now, let’s see what will happen to demand… https://t.co/P2sRK0IrsT

Sobering to read that @TheEconomist talks about a “recipe for saving the NHS (that) requires radicalism and a shift in focus”. Instead of being the generals health professionals were made but foot soldiers these past decades. Time to go back to its roots

The path towards inclusion, equity and diversity has been long and winding. That media personality like Stan Grant needs to step back highlights the work that remains to be done and collective effort across industries and communities. https://t.co/JDwBz5rXzl

What type of person describes homeless people as “gross” and “disgusting”?! Am shocked overhearing this American guy casually refer to the homeless in #SanFrancisco as such. Good lord

#chatGPT ceo testified in us congress about its creation/tool depending on whose side of the debate you are on. As always, it’s buyers beware when it comes to using it. Any one/student who relies on this deserves to/will fail unless they do counter checks wrt hallucinations

Is there such a person as a good influencer? I mean bad influence is a thing and widely understood. And what about under the influence?

Which European country would follow, ok come near Canada’s lead on alcohol consumption guidance? #prevention #clinicalrecommendations https://t.co/6PJgnLo4Lb

There’s too much sugar and there’s the right kind of sweet that you may #indulge in without the guilt (and fear of obesity and associated diseases).

[Pricivel Carrera @pricivel]

Sorry not sorry? @BBC_Reel yet again does a sloppy job to reel in viewers. Better framing could avoid the trap of “its a cultural thing”. Owing a mistake entails saying sorry like #slavery https://t.co/b331cqQLcx

#DryJanuary should be the start of one’s commitment to wean off from alcohol and not an excuse to resume drinking for the rest of the year. Healthy now, healthier longer #cancerprevention

[Pricivel Carrera @pricivel]

@aicrtweets I seriously never thought an organization like yours would do such a stunt. To claim that a “you have cancer” in the subject of your communication calls to question your social media processes and procedures. #notfunny

Quinsy Gario created the movement "Black Pete is racism", calling out the annual tradition of Sinterklaas which, involved a widespread practice of white people "blacking-up". At a dinner with UT colleagues, one questioned why Zwarte Piet’s an issue https://t.co/GRUTt9Vx1Z
