Thursday mornings we have fellow conference @Scripps in La Jolla. Last Thurs, one of our first-year fellows Dr. Hong brought @unclebiffs Cookies for our conference on neuro-oncology. Senior fellow Dr. Parsons, shown here, was quite excited. #ScrippsHEMONCfellowship
At @ASCO#GI23, we show a stark stepwise increase in deaths from GI #cancer in areas with increasing food insecurity, food stamp usage, fast food density, and lower cost of meal - a concerning trend at a time when food prices are rising but food benefits are being cut
There has to be a better system than releasing scan & pathology results to patients as occurs now. Even if we tell pts they can not look & wait to hear from the dr, ppl still look & they still reel, sometimes unnecessarily & often inadequately supported. The suffering is real.
One of the best parts of #SABCS2022 was seeing all the fashions people from around the world were wearing! Have never wanted a new wardrobe more in my life.
90% reproducibility among pathologists 🥼 on HER-2 high
But only 60% concordance on HER-2 low-eek 🫣
Frankly with DAISY data, I'm more worried about missing lows than the overcalling of lows that are actually 0. Missing out on a tx option is a big concern.

@Dr_RShatsky@UCSDCancer Somehow Twitter won't let me private message you but I'm a Scripps fellow interested in breast medical onc, not graduating until 2024 but would be glad to meet with you!!
