I was delighted to receive my US🇺🇸 citizenship today
Even uncle @JoeBiden left behind the Mayo vs Cork rivalry to send me a personal message..
Being an international medical graduate (IMG) in 🇺🇸 is hard. Here’s some advice from my journey (most relevant for academic physicians)

The time is right to advance equity in cancer care for all. Special shout-out to @AACI_Cancer @DrRobWinn for launching the Presidential Inclusive Excellence Initiative that includes #globaloncology
Association of American Cancer Institutes@AACI_Cancer
Shrinking the global cancer burden requires thinking—and acting—on a global scale, say Dr. Patrick J. Loehrer, Sr. @IUCancerCenter, @NCIGopal, @LajousMartin, and @DrEliasMelly in the April 2024 #AACICommentary. conta.cc/3Ue28GJ #GlobalOncology #collaboration #partnership

Absolutely well deserved! Congratulations @NeliMUlrich

Excellent work @GitaSuneja and @jkmcgee and relevant evidence to do more for #HIVOnc. It is unacceptable that such disparities are still increasing in the latest period assessed.

🧐Check out our latest work! Survival among patients with untreated #metastaticbreastcancer: “What if I do nothing?” Median OS 2.5 mo vs 36.4 mo with treatment! rdcu.be/dAlgW

Approximately 90% of children with cancer live in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), where 5-year survival can be lower than 20%.

Equity is letting cancer survivors in Africa tell their own stories. Excited about our publication on breast cancer survivor narratives- profoundly underutilized intervention in supporting cancer care.

Perhaps the strongest paper I've ever been involved in. Thank you to @Yoshiko_Iwai for the effort of a career 😊 Please read the discussion and let's talk. We will get nowhere with loose, tautological "definitions."

What’s the best way to tell someone that this Christmas might be your last Christmas? Is there a good way? Today is the last workday because Christmas holiday. I’ve told two of my patients that. I was stammering.
