The City of Houston’s boil water mandate continues to impact our facilities and operations. We're monitoring the situation and have not cancelled Monday appointments at this time. We'll share further updates on social media and at mdanderson.org/emergencyaler… as needed. 1/11 #HouWx

A rare treat to talk about #Leadership along side such great leaders - including my husband @G_Q_Daley @HMS and the remarkable @ppisters
Excellent discussion with @AmyCEdmondson and @G_Q_Daley on the importance of psychological safety in high reliability organizations like @MDAndersonNews. Thank you for sharing your expert insights on fostering a culture of innovation, resilience and, most significantly, trust.

“30-50% of cancers can be prevented using the science we have now. We need to anchor ourselves around an approach where science is driving policy. It is our job in the academic community to promote this thinking in the industry.” @TAMESTX #TAMEST2020 @MDAndersonNews
