For those graduating from fellowship/residency this year; training is tough and difficult. As you get ready to take on your new role, consider this quote from Will Durant - “Those who have suffered much become very bitter or very gentle.” I urge you to consider the latter!

Launching chemo.gyoedu.org Enhance patient preparedness and adherence by providing accessible, standardized chemotherapy educational videos in the clinic. Minimize staff administrative time and ensure all patients receive consistent pre-treatment instruction.

Is it ok to cry when your patient progresses or has a recurrence? Is it ok to cry when facilitating end of life discussions? And how does that impact oncologist self perception and worth? Our poster in #ASCO2025 presented by amazing med student Hannah Catzen #burnout

Most benefit in stage III pts (n=468): PCS vs NACT/ICS • PFS: 26.3 vs 21.4 mos • OS: 63.7 vs 53.2 mos Surgical quality mattered—complete resection = median OS of 67 mos. PCS offers long-term survival advantage in resectable, non-frail pts. #gyncsm #ovariancancer

TRUST trial: In non-frail pts with stage IIIB-IVB ovarian cancer, PCS led to longer PFS (22.2 vs 19.7 mos, p=0.02) vs NACT/ICS. OS favored PCS (54.3 vs 48.3 mos, p=0.24), esp. in stage III pts (OS: 63.7 vs 53.2 mos). PCS remains standard in expert centers. #gyncsm #oncology @sgo

The most practice changing trial from #ASCO25 is now live on @NEJM .If this was a drug, this would be approved today. Globally relevant and low-cost intervention that is not only delaying relapse but actually improving survival. Perfect case example of a #cancergroundshot trial. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

Hello Michigan! I’ll be in Ann Arbor next Thursday to discuss critical appraisal of cancer drug RCTs using the CSO checklist. Do drop by if you’re around (or by zoom). Perfect timing to get you all prepared for #ASCO25.
