In oncology, we spend a lot of money/effort trying to find new drugs. The best drug in GI cancers continues to be 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) - a drug which costs <$1/dose. We could likely be using this drug far better. Here's a first step: authors.elsevier.com/c/1i~AA9UKeTln…


The man behind me on my flight identified Robin Williams as his favorite current comedian, and then indicated that he was torn, as he felt Gallagher is a genius (present tense).

A year ago, I sent Andy Aguirre and Ryan Corcoran an email asking if there was any way I could target my patient's NRAS G12C mutated colon cancer. Sotorasib is a pan-RASG12C inhibitor capable of driving clinical response in NRASG12C cancers aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscover…

All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who’ve been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it…

I believe the estimate of 200-300 deaths/year in the US from DPD deficiency is likely correct. This is like 1 large airplane falling out of the sky each year. If the regulator was the FAA, they’d be paying close attention.

The GOP undoubtedly leaned heavily on Rep-elect @Santos4Congress’s experience having negotiated both the Treaty of Versailles and The Treaty of Westphalia.

You may have heard the shocking headline that 250,000 people die every year in the US due to misdiagnosis in the ER. You may be even more shocked to know that this statistic is extrapolated from the death of... just one man. in a Canadian ER. over a decade ago.
