Thank you @ASTRO_org. Horrific there are humans who decapitate babies, rape women, and more horrific things to even name. Pure evil. To my family members called to serve in Israel, and the many others involved, I hope for your and your families safety. I hope all innocent people will be unharmed and justice will be served. Sadly I know this has never happened in history when terrorism and war involved. Innocent people already suffering due to Hamas starting this violence that has led to war and more innocent ppl suffering. Fighting Nazis in WWII was the right thing to do, but sadly innocent people harmed in process. Blame was on Nazis. Doesn’t mean bystanders harmed wanted. Tragic. Nothing can justify the attack by Hamas. Supporting Jews and Israelis does not mean anyone wants innocent people harmed in Gaza. For those of us blessed with immense freedom, loving one another and respecting everyone helps prevent this from happening here. I hope this brings some perspective to how fortunate most of us are. Enough toxic negativity. Let’s support one another. – at Shaker Heights, OH

Thank you @CNS_Update for crafting and disseminating this important message. All of us, as citizens of the world community, must stand together against the human atrocities we continue to witness: abduction, mutilation, and intentional killing of civilians.
The Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) exists fundamentally to enhance health and improve lives. Like many of our members worldwide, we are following the ongoing tragic events in Israel with profound sadness and concern. CNS Statement: cns.org/about/press-room-det…

This beautiful woman is named Noa. She was taken hostage by Hamas during a music festival. Today is her 26th birthday. Her parents ask that we all wish her a happy birthday with the hope that maybe somehow these messages will reach her. Please share. #HappyBirthdayNoa

As reports and scenes of extreme violence continue to emerge across news and social media channels, a letter by Shani Paluch-Shimon and colleagues urges the intl. medical community to join calls for the immediate, unconditional release of Israeli hostages. hubs.li/Q025kZz30

📢Results of RTOG1112- OS benefit when SBRT is added to sorafenib: 15.8 vs 12.3mo med survival in a very advanced population- most of whom had vascular invasion. Time to progression was also improved. Very imp as we treat HCC in a multiD manner using many LDTs in sequence.

This #WomenWhoCurie Wednesday we honor @drlarissalee and @drvanwyhe, two tremendous role models, physicians, and friends who were lost too soon. Their memory lives on through their lasting impact on so many of us. We welcome stories or words of remembrance as we grieve together.
