Cheers, chills, and a standing ovation when RASolute 302 showed unprecedented survival on daraxonrasib for patients with progressive pancreatic cancer Seldom do you sense you’re witnessing a historic moment in cancer care but this feels like ras targeting has arrived #ASCO26

👏 Congratulations to our 15 Research Scholar Awardees! The awardees are rising researchers advancing earlier detection, more personalized therapies and improved outcomes across urologic disease. This year’s awardees represent a diverse range of research areas—from cancer biology and artificial intelligence to pediatric care and infection prevention. 🔗 Click to learn more about the program and the awardees: bit.ly/4r5ABpA

Last night, I made a simple request on X. I asked if anybody visiting Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day would stop by Alan’s grave and leave a photo for our family. What happened next honestly caught me off guard. By this afternoon, dozens of Americans from all walks of life had made the walk to Section 60 to visit SSG Alan W. Shaw. Veterans. Families. Complete strangers. People who had never met Alan, but chose to honor him anyway. For one day on social media, people put aside the constant noise and negativity and came together for something bigger than themselves. My notifications filled with photos, kind messages, prayers, and stories from people honoring not just Alan, but so many of our fallen heroes. I don’t think people fully understand what moments like this mean to Gold Star families. The fear is never just losing them. It’s losing them slowly over time as the world moves on and fewer people remember their name. But today showed me that Alan will never be forgotten. After years of watching social media reward some of the worst parts of humanity, today gave me a reminder that the good is still out there too. Thank you to every single person who stopped by to visit Alan today, said his name, shared his story, or took a moment to honor the fallen. This right here is the America Alan knew and loved enough to fight and die for. And today, y’all showed us all that it’s still here and it’s still worth fighting for. 🇺🇸

We had an amazing time at AUA 2026, and would like to extend our congratulations to Professor Emeritus Thomas Stringer, MD, on his election to president-elect of the association! @AmerUrological

Congratulations to @MarkTysonMD for being selected as the newest member of the National Cancer Institute's Genitourinary Steering Committee! (bit.ly/3RDbHA6) @theNCI

This is kind of a big deal

While at AUA several folks asked me about getting new videos. Click on site where you can access many MP and SP full length cases that are annotated. Please share for those looking to expand their repertoire and resource for residents and fellows. Thank you @BoxLineBox expertsinsurgery.com/

🆕💥🔴Systematic review and meta-analyses Shorter(2∼5 days)- versus longer(≥7 days) -course antibiotics in children with acute uncomplicated UTIs #idxposts #UTIWiki @BradSpellberg clinicalmicrobiologyandinfec…

At @JAMA_current today, 2 radiologists publish what should be the consent form for a total body MRI in healthy people Note: "no major medical society recommends whole-body MRI screening in the general population because it is unproven, and the harms likely outweigh the benefits." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Real case: very low-risk prostate cancer (PSA 3.4 ng, Gleason 3 3, 2-12, ISUP 1) appropriate for active surveillance. A family seeks a second opinion; a surgical oncologist orders a PSMA PET-CT? and refers to medical oncology. The scan, performed at a low-experience center, is read as metastatic (bone and nodal), leading to unnecessary chemotherapy ADT ARPI. When the patient returned to me, the findings did not match the clinical picture, so I recommended a second nuclear medicine review. Conclusion: rib and cervical “lesions” were inflammatory/benign uptake, not metastases. Likely technical issue: residual sodium fluoride in an aged PSMA radiotracer causing nonspecific bone uptake. No CT structural correlate. Key takeaway: Integrate clinical context, pathology, and technical quality. #prostatecancer

What a special 2 days having my mentor and friend Dr. Hadley Wood at @VanderbiltU as the inaugural John Brock Endowed Lecturer for our pediatric urology visiting professor @VUMCurology @CleClinicUro

🆕⚡🟢Target trial emulation with the SAIL Databank Prophylactic antibiotic use did not increase the risk of hospital admission with an antibiotic-resistant infection or urine infection, but it did increase the risk of uropathogen antibiotic resistance and multidrug antibiotic resistance on urine culture #IDXposts #UTIWiki thelancet.com/journals/lanog…
