The theme today is “Kicking Women’s Cancer” and fans could pick up ribbons. Since I’m wearing my custom “OG” NCI @washingtonspirit.com jersey, I went OG with my choice of ribbon #melanoma #ScienceIsReal Always grateful for the opportunity to move us forward to the medicines of tomorrow!

Looking for recommendations, I have been in a historical fiction groove for a bit, but have exhausted the Maisie Dobbs series and Connie Willis and the time travelers.

An interesting debate! I think both answers are ultimately correct. IMO…Unmodified cells are the answer now. Proven, safe, with impact. But not perfect, and engineered cells may well be the future. (And Surgery Branch abandoned IL-2 and IL-12 engineering with early technology)
Another GREAT DEBATE! Prof. @chrystalpaulos.bsky.social @ #Emory debates with Prof. Allison Betof Warner #Stanford @stanfordpress.bsky.social / at start majority thinks it will be better to engineer TIL #Bridge2024 @sitcancer.bsky.social #adoptive #immunotherapy

Absolutely. And would read it with my “real” choices to get my first ending, and then would go back and try to map all the alternate endings.

The retrospectoscope is the easiest tool to wield in science and medicine. And it distorts real-time knowledge and decisions. And users of it should not be put into leadership positions. Facts matter.

Women doing science. In a meritocracy. Getting stuff done. #NCATS #NASA #NIH
Science in microgravity, from molecular biology to particle physics.

I feel like there’s been a lot of feeling of loss lately…. Washington Spirit heading to the NWSL championship after a masterful PK performance by Aubrey Kingsbury is a massive win.🥇 #woso #nwsl #washingtonspirit

If you don’t see government scientists standing up for themselves and their work, it’s because it has been drilled into us with yearly Ethics training that we fall under the Hatch Act. And we tend to follow rules.

As seen at Planet Word (circa 2022) wouldn’t be who I am without growing up in my local library.

Following migration patterns… but also switching to a personal account… I’m a surgeon-scientist studying cellular immunotherapy for metastatic cancer. I also happen to be a former theatre kid (with a love of Sondheim) and a new fan of women’s soccer. ⚽️🎶👩🏻‍⚕️
