I was delighted to join the Friends of Cancer Research annual meeting this week. Thanks to @CancerResrch President and CEO Dr. Jeff Allen for hosting a great fireside chat with me to discuss modernizing clinical trials for the new era of cancer research.
"If we limit our knowledge to only those who have access today we miss out. We miss out on bringing these discoveries as far and as wide as they can get, but we also miss out on the data as well." @theNCI's @KimrynRathmell at #FriendsAM24 Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=hQ7rYi…
The cancer survivorship experience begins at the time of diagnosis, through the balance of life. Thanks to the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship for hosting a great Fall Cancer Policy Roundtable and welcoming me as a speaker. @CancerAdvocacy
Inspired by Dr. Kimryn Rathmell’s keynote presentation “Further, Faster: Working Together to End Cancer As We Know it.” Her insights on #cancerresearch and future policy priorities leave us with a renewed drive for impactful change. #cancersurvivorship #canceradvocacy…
We’re seeing an alarming increase in new cancer cases among younger people. I was honored to discuss this important topic and potential solutions alongside a fantastic group of expert panelists at the @MilkenInstitute Future of Health Summit yesterday: go.nih.gov/OYgn9yL
One of my first roles as a Certified Nursing Assistant was "bath nurse" at a nursing home. I learned so much about the vital role of caregivers in helping patients live fuller lives. Thank you to all caregivers for what you do this #NationalFamilyCaregivingMonth and every month.
What gets measured gets done, as the saying goes. Gauging progress toward equity for women touched by cancer – at the global level – requires robust monitoring through key indicators. Looking forward to this important event from @TheLancet Commission on Women, Power, and Cancer.
Don't miss the Lancet Commission on Women, Power, & Cancer @LGCW2024! This session will introduce key indicators to evaluate the global implementation of 10 recommendations for impactful change. Nov 13th @ 11am ET. Register 🌍go.nih.gov/HYCdpcp
