Shame on @IDSA for putting out nonsense like this. I stopped being a member years ago due to this kind of willful and arrogant ignorance. I hope its members start demanding accountability from an organization charging y’all annual dues. An online petition is coming soon…

The Medical Research Future Fund has grown far beyond its target. Why is so much of the money unused? theconversation.com/the-medi… via @ConversationEDU
This is a positive step towards equity. However, like all recommendations it comes down the the effectiveness of implementation and the fact that the true cost of research is never covered by our funding models. Will be interesting to see how big pharma adopt these. @PeterMacRes
For the first time, WHO offers recommendations for national health authorities, regulators, and funders to improve clinical trials.
The guidance addresses issues like poor trial design, lack of diversity and inclusion of at-risk populations, infrastructure gaps, and inefficiencies that delay progress.

Watch this patient case study video, from the MS Medical Grand Rounds meeting in Melbourne, Australia, in which Professor Anneke van der Walt considers how patient-reported outcomes (PROs) can be used in clinical practice.

Great study. This approach should underpin any implementation - you need to know barriers and facilitators from a funding, guideline, institutional, and clinician level. Systems thinking is one methodology. Of course local factors including culture will differ between orgs.
🥳🥳High need to adopt systems-thinking into all #supponc practices!
Never lack evidence for exercise & diets in #survonc, but we need to pull the RIGHT LEVERS to make it happen!

Half of all non relapse mortality deaths in CAR-T are due to infection - optimising a collaborative model of care, sepsis pathways and prophylaxis strategies are all important.
Just out @NatureMedicine meta-analysis >7600 CAR T pts led by @DavidCdSMD & @KRejeski
- Non-relapse mortality post CAR-T = 6.8%
- highest w ciltacel (15%) & brexucel (10.6%)
- axicel (7%) > tisa-/lisocel (4%) for LBCL
- 51% of NRM deaths from infection

Improvement toolkits & good practice databases are useful but they only take us so far. As much as 80% of the knowledge in an organisation isn't written down. It's not a failure of documentation. it's to do with the nature of the knowledge and the way it gets spread. That's why it is critical that we make time & space for networks, communities of learning/practice, huddles & sharing conversations if we want change & improvement to happen: nickmilton.com/2021/11/why-y…. Thanks @nickknoco
Don’t forget PETs role in other diseases like infections/granulomatous diseases/vasculitis.
Dr. Seth Gammon says he hopes PET scans and SUV numbers can be used to further personalize cancer care.

What an incredible group of nurses - you are the future of new models of cancer care delivery.
Great to see so many Peter Mac nurses at the @CNSA_ORG annual congress in Brisbane this week. Thank you for sharing Peter Mac's nurse-led research and innovation with cancer nurses from all over Australia!

What’s the preference of breast cancer survivors when it comes to follow up #survonc care? What’s their willingness to pay? Check out our latest DCE study - great collaboration between @Flinders & @QUT @AusHSI
