I've been following along #ASTRO22 and can't help but think about how some research being showcased furthers inequity in medicine. Some places have all the tech, AI, MR linac, protons and certain patients can/will travel for that technology, whether or not it clinically matters.

Dr @RRabinovitch on Looking In The Mirror: What I Didn’t Know as an Oncologist Until I Became a Cancer Patient. I loved this section about the “free fall” after active cancer tx ends. It mirrors what I warn my pts when they finish RT. Sometimes it’s the hardest part. #ASTRO22

This #ASTRO21 #DEIinRO is def one I will be watching again. Mitigating bias in the hiring & residency review process should be a top priority for every program. Structured interviews & holistic review via standardized rubric are important tools to help level the playing field.

Outstanding session today by @ChelseaPinnix @SueEvansMDMPH @d_golden Derrick Brown, Titania Juang and @reshmajagsi on Mitigating Bias In #radonc Recruitment at #astro21. Check it out in the virtual meeting.

We know that Black children are often viewed as adults? And that Black patients/parents are penalized for the very advocacy that is professed as so important to care? And that Black patients are often referred less for "aesthetic" procedures...like breast recon after mastectomy?

The opening voice that set the stage for #ASTRO21 was an amazing woman, #advocate, #survivor, who also happens to be black AND a #radonc. Her reflections on humanism had me so wrapt I didn’t get a pic. Check out Dr. Shekinah Elmore @pre_rad - her @TEDTalks was amazing!!!
