Affirmative action was never a complete answer in the drive towards a more just society. But for generations of students who had been systematically excluded from most of America’s key institutions—it gave us the chance to show we more than deserved a seat at the table. In the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, it’s time to redouble our efforts.
Michelle Obama@MichelleObama

I wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme Court decision on affirmative action:

We @Alinea are incredibly proud to be working with these amazing doctors, computer scientists, and researchers to find novel ways of beating cancer. I hate fundraisers but love fundraising. The rule at our dinners is simple -- no auction, no cost. Just donate. No rubber chicken
Friends of UChicago Medicine@UChiMedFriends

Since 2008, @gachatz has supported @UChicagoMed's head & neck cancer program through annual benefit dinners at @Alinea. Though the pandemic put this tradition on hold, we remain incredibly grateful for this partnership and everyone involved. Thank you --> mailchi.mp/mbsd/alinea-20…

@JackWestMD Of course this is true but outcome is encouraging in the meantime and much better than if it had been missed. Intuitively local control will be better and we can hope that will apply to systemic control as well.

In a startling turn of events, I'm going to say that beyond needing to see actual data here, we need to see pCR correlation w/OS in lung cancer before declaring it a new std of care. Lower bar & faster answer, yes, but it is not an established surrogate in lung cancer thus far.
Stephen V Liu, MD@StephenVLiu

#OncoAlert Phase 3 CheckMate 816 study meets its primary endpoint. Addition of neoadjuvant nivolumab to chemo in resectable NSCLC improved pathological CR rate ca chemo alone. Awaiting full data set. Is pCR a valid surrogate for OS in this setting? #LCSM news.bms.com/news/corporate…
