Do you want to use patient-derived organoids to model cervical cancer? Our group (study led by staff scientist Rui Wang!) did the hard troubleshooting for you and published it as an easy-to-follow protocol 🤗 star-protocols.cell.com/prot…

Look at those RT waterfall plots 🤩 Great work by @AnnKloppMD and @adam_grippin !!
Proud of my co-resident @adam_grippin for presenting the IMMUNOCERV Phase II Trial results at #ASTRO24! Exciting insights on how PDS0101 vaccine w/ CRT could contribute to the care of patients with advanced cervical cancer. @AnnKloppMD @colbertle @ChelseaPinnix @MDAndersonNews

Brilliant presentation by @MDAndersonNews #RadOnc PGY5 resident @BenjaminSchrank today. This is the FIRST antibody-drug conjugate specifically designed to enhance immune activation against cancer. LET’S GOOOO! @wenjiang_nano @BettyKimLab @ACKoongMDPhD #ASTRO24
Dr. Benjamin Schrank explains his recent research on a first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate that is designed to trigger an immune response, as a complementary strategy to radiation therapy. Read more: bit.ly/3XXRmWW @BenjaminSchrank #ASTRO24 #EndCancer

A first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate works by targeting protein CD47, which helps immune cells activate and engulf cancer cells. The drug triggers an adaptive immune response to help eliminate the tumor. Learn more about the research, which Dr. Ben Schrank will present at #ASTRO24: bit.ly/3XXRmWW #EndCancer

Way to go @dr_p_carriere!
1 in 3 men to receive RP or EBRT for treatment of localized #ProstateCancer reported “moderate to big problems” with sexual function 10 years later, according to a new longterm study at #ASTRO24. Read more longterm functional outcomes from #CEASAR here: urologytimes.com/view/how-do…

Key takeaways from @ARRO_org graduating resident survey 1️⃣ > 95% got the job type they wanted when they started the process (academic or private) 2️⃣ >90% satisfied with the job they signed 3️⃣ ~15% felt job market was tough this year. DOWN from ~70% in 2019-2020 #astro24
