Social Genomic Determinants of Health: a concrete biological pathway through which the effects of social processes and social epidemiology come to affect the basic biology of cancer and ultimately clinical outcomes and survival. @JCO_ASCO ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…

Congratulations to Brian Marples, PhD, on becoming a 2024 ASTRO Fellow! View the complete list of the 2024 Fellows here: ow.ly/90Tq50SImtL @BrianMarples @WilmotCancer @URochester_SMD

When @UofR founded its cancer center 50 years ago, DNA & RNA sequencing was done through gel electrophoresis, barely detecting single genes. Today, Wilmot's Genomics Shared Resource uses a machine that can analyze 250+ genomes weekly. 🤯Amazing! #WilmotFlashbackFriday

Enhancing Precision in Detecting Severe Immune-Related Adverse Events: use of large language models required 9 seconds/chart versus 15 minutes for clinician adjudication and demonstrated higher sensitivity with similar specificity. @JCO_ASCO ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…

We are excited to share that John Ashton, PhD, MBA, has been named Associate Director for Shared Resources at Wilmot Cancer Institute. Read more about his story & Shared Resources at Wilmot: urmc.rochester.edu/news/story/wil… #URochesterResearch

The new Covid KP.2 booster vaccines are becoming available throughout the US. Besides high-risk (e.g. age 65+, immunocompromised, comorbidities), one of the most important reasons to get boosted, often overlooked, is to reduce #LongCovid risk by ~50%. Agree with Marks at FDA highlighting this point. latimes.com/california/sto…

1/2 ATROPHIC GLOSSITIS I posted a poll yesterday showing an image of atrophic glossitis (from PMID: 31618542) and asked whether the findings were characteristic of iron deficiency and/or vitamin B12 deficiency. Interestingly, most of you (53%) chose B12 deficiency alone.

June 22 was World Vestibular Schwannoma Day! 🎗️ Raising awareness about vestibular schwannoma, also known as acoustic neuroma, a rare non-cancerous tumor that affects the balance and hearing nerves. Early detection and treatment are crucial for managing this condition effectively. Large vestibular schwannomas that compress the brainstem (Koos grade 4) remain challenging lesions to treat surgically. We continue to raise the bar with radical near total and gross total resections of Koos grade 4 vestibular schwannomas with greater than 95% excellent facial nerve outcomes (HB 1-2). Here are some examples of some large tumors treated this past month with normal facial nerve outcomes. Join us in spreading knowledge, supporting those affected, and celebrating the advancements in medical research and treatment. Together, we can make a difference! #VestibularSchwannomaDay #AcousticNeuroma #VestibularSchwannoma #Awareness #HealthMatters #SupportAndResearch #NeurosurgeonsofNewJersey #SkullBaseInstituteofNewJersey @NeuroSurgeryNJ @ANAssociation @acousticneuroma @NASBSorg @CBMCNJ @RWJBarnabas Skull Base Institute of New Jersey Acoustic Neuroma Program skullbasemd.com neurosurgeonsofnewjersey.com/james-k-liu/ Email: jliu@neurosurgerynj.com

Great upcoming Spinal Deformity Course at CNS! On Saturday, 9/28, the CNS and SRS will be hosting a special symposium; Spinal Deformity Primer for All Neurosurgeons with an incredible panel of experts in the field. Sign up today! @CNS_Update @spinesection

Menin inhibitors could revolutionize leukemia treatment. This review demonstrates their potential impact on pediatrics and how collaboration with adults can accelerate their global availability for children. @GhayasIssa @DrHKantarjian nature.com/articles/s4137…

@garciamanero President of @SocietyofHemOnc delivering the inaugural remarks #SOHO2024 👉Great to see increased participation in the SOHO meeting over the years 👏👏 @DrHKantarjian

@GeraldCreager This is a delay in the disease

This Lancet position paper is spot-on. Especially galling: "As a result, long COVID is often easily dismissed as a psychosomatic condition." More resources and appreciation of the disease process are needed.

Our innovative method combines donating microsurgery training kits with live-streamed instruction, making remote microsurgical education feasible. Link: authors.elsevier.com/a/1jU8D3j0Stox… #Neurosurgery #SurgicalTechniques #cerebrovascular #microvascular #microsurgery #medicaleducation

You wake up as the patient in an episode of medical tv, what show is it ?

Cerebellum does so much more than coordination
