#PEOF2022 is where we actually work WITH each other to advance systematic involvement of patients in both development & care. Leaders from different stakeholders bundle brains and forces together, in a wonderful demonstration of purpose-driven equi(al)ty, diversity and inclusion.

1 in 41 black males die from CRC, seeing a group of men raise a #strongarmselfie to say they are in the fight against #colorectalcancer is a picture worth sharing. Get screened! @NFLhallofFamers @jerrykelly13pga @leebrice @rogerclemens @FightCRC #CologuardClassic #Golf

Patients are not hormone receptor positive. Their cancers are. Patients are not metastatic. Their cancers are. When we write like this—in conf abstracts, in manuscripts, in protocols—it is dehumanizing.

Halting funding for the World Health Organization during a world health crisis is as dangerous as it sounds. Their work is slowing the spread of COVID-19 and if that work is stopped no other organization can replace them. The world needs @WHO now more than ever.

Dawn P Richards: Don't call my experience a patient "story" - go.shr.lc/2NbG907 Great blog = great story? Less hung up on this particular word. Story telling remains a powerful tool to drive education, inspiration and innovation. The word SUBJECT really upsets me!
