A bit overdue, but certainly worth celebrating! 🎉 Join us in congratulating @gitamody on her induction into @AATSHQ ! She also shared thoughtful commentary on abstracts highlighting global health capacity building and trainee well-being.

Congrats to @UNC_SOM's Professor Dr. Jason Long and soon-to-be Dr. Maria Fonseca on an outstanding presentation at #AATS2025 in Seattle last weekend! Their findings highlight the "long game" and the need to evaluate risk factors for lung cancer recurrence after segmentectomy.

🎉 Congrats to Dr. Chase Cox on his presentation at #ASC2025! His research is paving the way for better tools to communicate vital patient-centered information to cancer patients preparing for surgery. Exciting work shaping the future of surgical care! 👏 #PatientCenteredCare
