Data demonstrates that there is a problem with equity in research funding:
🔸️ ethnic minority applicants are less likely to be successful
🔸️ female applicants are more likely to be successful when there is a female on the review panel but otherwise less likely to be successful

NEW: Men and women belonging to Gen Z are more divided than those of any other generation on key questions about feminism, gender roles and women’s rights

Liso-cel 2ary CNS lymphoma: Ahmed
- 57 pts, 39 wth active CNSL at infn
- ORR 73%, 12mo PFS 30%, 45% 12mo OS
- no diff if active or not active CNSL
- 16% G3/4 ICANs (?higher than for other liso-cel data)
#ASH24 #lymsm

Upfront geri assessment in NHL #ASH24
- poor correlation between CGA and clinician-assessed ECOG/CARG (not surprising)
- frail = most non-heme AEs (infx, cardiac tox)
- fit/prefrail good OS; frail very poor OS
We need to stop relying on ECOG for dose/tx optimization. #lymsm

Dreyling: longer FU of Triangle (55mo)
- Signif OS benefit of Ibr containing arms
- FFS: ASCT+ibr superior to ASCT
- FFS: Ibr looks superior to ASCT
- ASCT maybe important for high Ki67 / blastoid / p53 abn
- ASCT comes at a tox cost
With an OS survival, imperative BTKi comes to 1L
#ASH24 #lymsm

An inspiring study tackling a rare disease in a country with (relatively) small population. Congrats @ericawood.bsky.social , Zoe McQuilten , Stephane Heritier , Stephen Ting et al ash.confex.com/ash/2024/web...

Arthur Croft has been donating blood for decades, reaching his milestone 500th donation, and is one of only a 170 people in Australia who can produce the anti-D antibody.

Saddened to read in @abcnewsbot.bsky.social about the widening gender gap in Aus school #stem testing: tinyurl.com/2j8cswck
Would love to start a conversation about how we can improve this & also highlight #AMSI & others doing great work in this area.
