Honored to present our experience with esophageal exclusion and reconstruction @AATSHQ—one of the most challenging patient populations in thoracic surgery. Grateful for the opportunity to share our work.

Excited to share our work on Semi-Elective Lung Transplantation - A complete paradigm shift in the planning and excecution of this complex and life-changing surgery. https://t.co/l0HjmQWDVo @badassladysurgn@AATSHQ@AATSJournals@UPMC_CTSurgery@UPMCnews
I can’t think about Joe Biden without tearing up a little.
This man ran for president 5 times and lost then enthusiastically backed Obama and played the establishment number two to the greatest leader of his generation.
He wanted to run for president in 2016 but couldn���t because his son Beau died and he was too wracked with grief.
So he comes back in 2020, saves the country from Donald Trump and despite being a career centrist, proceeds to have the most pro-union, pro-working class administration in 80 years, pulls the country out of Covid, pulls us from the economic disaster of Trump into the best economy in the world.
He’s then betrayed by the media class and has to drop out because he’s too old for them. He steps down, for the good of the country, and immediately turns around and full-throatedly endorses the the first Black woman Presidential candidate finalist in U.S. history.
This man.
Dr Erkmen presented important data clarifying gender disparities in compensation in CT surgery at the #STS2024 session on the @STS_CTsurgery survey.
Women are consistently compensated less than their men counterparts, cents on the man’s dollar.

To recruit more women into cardiothoracic surgery, Wagner, @JennaRomanoMD, and coauthors believe it is imperative that cardiothoracic training programs create policies to normalize childbearing in training and to support trainees in achieving a healthy pregnancy. Link below.
Lung cancer kills more women than breast, ovarian, and cervical cancer - combined!
Anyone with lungs can get lung cancer
The time for lung cancer research and advocacy is now!
