Moments at #ASCO25 friends, reunions, & great times!

@IvyLorena_Md @ASCO @APLoehrer Excited to see all the interest in advocacy in trainees and early career oncology professionals. In my experience, weaving advocacy into the fabric of your career keeps you and your patients from unraveling.

We had a great panel today—diverse perspectives and fantastic questions from our trainees! #Advocacy #ASCO25 @ASCO cc @APLoehrer

Always excited to be able to catch up with colleagues, both past and present, from #MitchellCancerInstitute at #ASCO25.

In 2003, Dr. Ralph Vance became the first Mississippian to lead the American Cancer Society. A lifelong UMMC faculty member, he made lasting impacts in oncology and patient support. Learn about his remarkable career: umc.edu/news/News_Arti…

Ending my term as @ASCO President w/ such immense gratitude. What a joy & honor it's been to serve our ASCO community, shining a light on The Art & Science of Cancer Care: From Comfort to Cure. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to this journey. -@lynn_schuchter #ASCO24

As #ASCO24 concludes, I’ll fondly remember the great panel discussion with Drs. @RamalingamMD @VarellaLeticia1 @NazliDizman @FawziAbuRous about becoming an oncologist in the US as an IMG, just hours before Dr. Ramalingam’s #PlenarySesion of the significant LAURA trial results
