Proud of our team jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… Esp co 1st authors @jxj1998 (now in med school) @ASarafMD2 (new attending) for their incredible work. Started as 2017 office conversation w/ @RyanNipp when we said let’s do this. pros matter! ctDNA data coming next @MGHCancerCenter

We really need to start incorporating PROs into routine oncology practice, but no easy way to do this in our EMR still. This is like geriatric assessment - needs institutional champions to move it forward, guidelines not enough. Difficult to find support.

This is an important paper, reinforcing yet again why PROs are not just an add-on, might be better than tumour markers! Patient-Reported Outcomes, Tumor Markers, and Survival Outcomes in Advanced GI Cancer jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…





.@BrighamWomens’ @dbittermanmd speaks about her work on using natural language processing models to unlock the value of electronic medical records—like proactively addressing patients' housing or transportation challenges. Watch #PeopleVCancer: youtube.com/watch?v=CZNP_Z…











Wonderful talk by @ASarafMD2 at the inaugural Early Career Professional Development session at #ASTRO23 with many great insights about key differences in mentorship, sponsorship, and benefits/challenges for early career Radiation Oncologists. Knocked it out of the park!! 💪🙌👏
