While preparing for this interview, it took a while for me to think carefully about my key motivations to take this #phdjourney and #research path that I have chosen. Once again, I am grateful to have received the #PhF23 award that have unlocked many more opportunities.
After watching his father battle #cancer & experience severe pain w/ no relief from medicines, #PhF23 awardee @dquin_ng of @UCI_SPPS is using real-world data to assess the value of #acupuncture for treating cancer-related #pain.

Dr @QasimHussainiMD #ASCOQLTY26 on two RCT on remotedly delivered exercise in specific vulnerable populations. He highlights that it is important to tailor our programs to specific groups & to identify ways to deliver sustainable exercise-therapy, including payment measures.

When we incentivize quality care with dollars, we may forget the core values of delivering quality care. Great talk by Dr. Jennifer Griggs! #ASCOQLTY26

Ever wonder if reimbursing #ExerciseOncology can be economically viable in the US? Based on the CHALLENGE trial, I’ll share my answer at #ASCOQLTY26 in Boston (A7, Oct 16). Grateful for the @ConquerCancerFd Merit Award. Come say hi or grab a coffee! asco.org/abstracts-presentat…
10 MET-hours/week (equivalent to 3 hours of brisk walking or 1.5 hours of jogging) improves the 8-year survival rate for colon cancer patients, increasing it from 83.2% to 90.3%. #CancerResearch #CancerSurvivorship #ExerciseOncology

#MedNews: The latest #colorectal #cancer screening guidelines from the American Cancer Society include a blood test.
But #colonoscopies and stool tests are still the better options, the authors say.
Here’s why.

1/ My first paper in PGY2 residency landed in JAMA Oncology, and the truth is it was won before I ran a single analysis. It came down to how I chose the question. 8 Years later, I realized that very few trainees got taught about how to pick a first research idea. Lets try a bit

On June 30, 2026, the NEJM retracted the clinical trial that got a drug approved by the FDA, triggering a $3.7B acquisition by Amgen.
The reason: the primary endpoint data was manipulated.
Here's how it happened, how it came to light, and who paid the price. 🧵

In @MASCC_JSCC: Delayed healthcare is significantly higher for cancer survivors who are: • Young adults (18–39) • On Medicaid • Earning less than $25k/yr.
Homeownership acts as both a predisposing and enabling factor. Interventions are needed. doi.org/10.1007/s00520-026-1…
