Congrats!! Our 2nd ASCO YIA in two years studying #focusedultrasound and #dipg/#dmg. In a field dominated by adult oncology I’m so proud of @ninayoh and @MGallittoMD representing childhood brain tumor research via the Initiative for Drug Delivery Innovation (IDDI). @hopeheroes
ASCO YIA recipient Nina Yoh, MD, (@ninayoh) spoke with us about her winning project and why she's inspired to be at #ASCO23 this year.

Congrats @MGallittoMD for passing his Qualifying Exam! Our first Resident/PHD candidate studying Focused Ultrasound and DIPG! New training pathway!! #radonc #nonionizing #acousticradiation @columbiacancer @ColumbiaRadOnc @ASTRO_org @ARRO_org
My bestie @DanielDickstein doing amazing things! So happy to be part of this initiative to foster inclusive cancer care discussions for sexual/gender minorities. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ – at Bronx, NY
This fantastic new Review discusses the prostate as a sexual organ & how treatment for prostate cancer can affect quality of life in people from sexual and gender minorities, especially those who engage in receptive anal intercourse. Read it here: rdcu.be/dcTvf

Thank you @DrJohnSuh for your amazing CNS lecture this morning @ColumbiaRadOnc. You are a tremendous inspiration - here is a photo of us residents after (barely) surviving one of your legendary mock oral board exams😅. Thank you for taking so much time to teach us!

Dear radonc colleagues, focused ultrasound uses non-ionizing acoustic radiation to open the blood brain barrier. The field of #radonc should be involved to help accelerate the field! Immobilization, dosimetry, physics, QA, intensity modulation, image guidance to name a few!

Appreciate the post! We’re very excited to finally share our work after months of collaboration, editing, and writing. This only begins to scratch the surface of important data to guide our future. @DukeRadOnc @DukeCancer @DukeEnvironment
Very interesting analysis @rfshenkerMD @radoncology on CO2 emissions/power consumption of LINACS
👉equivalent emissions of driving 5 - 41 miles
👉“standby” mode uses most energy
👉small portion of CO2 emissions in healthcare system
