We really need to start incorporating PROs into routine oncology practice, but no easy way to do this in our EMR still. This is like geriatric assessment - needs institutional champions to move it forward, guidelines not enough. Difficult to find support.

This is an important paper, reinforcing yet again why PROs are not just an add-on, might be better than tumour markers! Patient-Reported Outcomes, Tumor Markers, and Survival Outcomes in Advanced GI Cancer jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

I had a great time discussing our research developing #NLP methods to actively support patients undergoing radiotherapy and other cancer treatment @AtlanticLIVE #PeopleVCancer @massgenbrigham @BrighamResearch
.@BrighamWomens@dbittermanmd speaks about her work on using natural language processing models to unlock the value of electronic medical records—like proactively addressing patients' housing or transportation challenges. Watch #PeopleVCancer: youtube.com/watch?v=CZNP_Z62…
