Great mentors expand your capacity while also sharpening your focus. They help you to see all of the things that you’re capable of doing while also helping you to choose which of those things are worth pursuing.

Just thanks as I've ended as the @jhubiostat Chair. Dear department friends-so many of you being with me at my farewell meant so much; same to JHU friends & family. Feeling truly privileged as I paddle into the sunset (photo authentic!) of chair life relishing my & dept's future!

The Brown Lab is moving to KUMC! This fantastic opportunity will allow me to work with the @KUcancercenter and the @KUDiabetesInst to build research efforts to decipher the etiology of #obesity-related #cancers and identify new risk reduction strategies.

The Nat’l Academies @nasem wants to understand how to promote equity for STEMM professionals w/caregiving responsibilities outside of work, especially caregivers of color. Check out survey.rti.org/se/1/care/ if you’d be willing to be interviewed (via Zoom)!

HER2 Testing: ASCO-CAP Guideline Update. Imp and helpful commentary ⁦@awolff⁩ - at that low level, IHC is really sensitive to subtle analytic factors. A slide sitting unstained for a week or so might change a 1+ to a 0 result. #bcsm sites.libsyn.com/115284/her2-te…

Researchers from @DanaFarber Cancer Institute have found a way to detect an increased cancer risk associated with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations without genetic sequencing, opening the door to more affordable, accessible tests. dana-farber.org/newsroom/news-…

#ASCO23 Dr. @BarYaelMD shows that if we biopsy enough times, we’ll get a HER2-low (83% after 3 bx & 100% after 5 bx in this dataset). Is this just sampling or true evolution? We don’t know (or if the answer even matters. Include pts w/ marker-neg tumors in early drug dev.) #bcsm
