Great talk #SSO2026 on resecting breast primary in of de novo stage IV breast cancer. Propensity matching analysis from @MDAndersonNews suggests primary tumor resec may improve survival with the strongest data seen in bone metastatic disease. Congratulations to authors on acknowledging possible selection of favorable biology given retrospective design

A true labor of love! So proud to see this work in print. Grateful to @GSandhuSurgEd and @a_mazurek9, all participating institutions, and @Surg_Education SERF for supporting our work.
Among surgical trainees across 9 hospitals, psychological safety was associated with four barriers and three facilitators spanning individual, interpersonal, and system-level factors. ja.ma/3IqgEZ7

July 1st is rarely scary at @BCM_Surgery since everyone starts on June 24th 👀 It’s been just over two weeks since our new interns started and they’re already in full swing. Cheers to the next 5-7 years! #BaylorMade

Thank you to @ASBrS for highlighting our work and @HelenMJohnsonMD for your mentorship! Key takeaway: pregnant and postpartum patients with breast cancer should be treated per standard of care, regardless of lactational status.
Amazing presentation by T32 fellow Dr Jen Chen @JenChenMD at #ASBrS2025 @ASBrS! Complication rates after biopsy or oncologic surgery in pregnant and postpartum patients are low, and not impacted by lactational status. Rates are comparable to the general population.
