Is anyone else going to #ASCO2025 in Chicago in May? I would love to connect with fellow medical professionals in #MedOnc 😁

Starting my palliative care rotation during the holidays is difficult. All I can do is try my best to support those patients and families through those though times ❤️ Practicing medicine is also about doing that.

The moment I diagnose Transfusion Associated Circulatory Overload I will 100% call hematology to ask if they want to TACO bout it

Top three hematology pearls for pediatricians #medsky #hemesky

1. Serum iron level is useless
2. Thrombocytosis is reactive 99% of the time
3. Percentage values on WBC differential don’t matter, only absolute values

I’m Gretchen. I sit up to straight and it makes me look uptight. Also, I should be less weird.

If you’ve never been to Montreal, this is your sign to visit. It has European vibes, the best food and we’re very open minded 🤗

‼️ Important thread from @scottehensley.bsky.social about sequence of #H5N1 #birdflu virus from hospitalized teen in #Canada. Per 🇨🇦 press conf earlier this wk, previously healthy with no bird/farm/ill contacts. Had red eyes, cough & fever 11/2, now in critical condition w/ ARDS. #MedSky #MedTwitter
The preliminary sequence from the H5N1 human case in British Columbia has been posted and it is not good news. The virus potentially has a quasispecies at HA residue 226 (H3 numbering). This is bad news because we know that mutations at residue 226 can increase binding to human receptors. 1/
