Great to see Dr @JonesDavid2013 at ESTS @thoracic Annual Meeting in Athens. Always dapper! He inspires me, including to dress like him.

Very proud of @JayBader_MD for his excellent job presenting radiographic predictors of neoadjuvant therapy response in NSCLC. #AATS2026
🩻PET better than CT
🎯Correlation between ⬇️ in size or SUVmax but plenty of exceptions limit accuracy

So incredibly proud of @MHShahzad5 @ronirayes and @JonathanCools for getting this awesome review. The sum of so much work on Neutrophil Extracellular Trap biology in cancer and some insights on how we may transition to the therapeutic space, now 15 years since we first conceived that NETs might play a role in cancer progression! nature.com/articles/s41568-0…

Today’s @IASLC #WCLC25 panel on resectable early-stage #lungcancer shows why patients & clinicians must work together across the whole perioperative pathway. Shared decision-making is essential to define real treatment benefit. Patient orgs can play big roles. @kamarroneMD Dr Oka

I’m happy to share our latest work on tumour necrosis! During my time in the @megeblad lab, we found that tumour necrosis is not a passive phenomenon secondary to tumour growth, but an active phenomenon driven by neutrophils and NETs! Thread below: (1/13)

I just heard huge news that needs to be celebrated!
Today marks 40 years of research and care for Dr Mark Kris @MSKCancerCenter
Dr Kris has been a champion for innovative research, playing a pivotal role in many advancements over the past 4 decades. His contributions to science have transformed lung cancer care nationally and internationally. Dr Kris has consistently pushed boundaries as a founder of the Lung Cancer Mutation Consortium and a pioneer in advocating for dose optimization, anti-nausea protocols before chemotherapy, and supportive care (when many considered side effects a trade-off for longer life).
He mentored generations of oncologists who now lead departments and run major trials. Most importantly, he gave hope to patients and families when there wasn't much if any (many years).
Thank you, Dr. Kris, for your tireless efforts and dedication to improving survival and quality of life for people diagnosed with lung cancer and our families!
