This post from Olivia Munn is such a stark reminder ladies of why we need to be a lot more proactive about breast cancer. Munn tested negative for any of the genes known to be associated with increased risk. But a risk assessment score led to a biopsy, which led to a diagnosis. – at Queens, NY

The same SCOTUS that said yesterday that states don’t have the ability to regulate guns today gave states the power to regulate women’s bodies.

The world lost a true free spirit. You have left a huge hole in my heart Kelsey. I love you so much, more than words can say. Life is so fragile. I’ll cherish our memories forever. You will always be my best friend and sister. #MedTwitter : be kind.
If you are debating on whether or not to go to that crowded, indoor #NewYearsEve party understand this… There’s at least 10,000 #Americans who were alive to celebrate #Christmas last week and are now #dead before #NYE. It’s not worth it.

Congrats to Kent Hoskins MD for his data presentation on significant biological differences in luminal breast tumors from Black women. "The data tell us that we desperately need proper representation of diverse populations in clinical trials." #ASCO21 bit.ly/3wWnD09

Thank you to @UICancerCenter for amplifying our work on health disparities. Can’t wait for #ASCO21 this weekend! “Equity: Every Patient. Every Day. Everywhere.”
Kudos to @YaelSimonsMD and colleagues. The team received a merit award for reporting molecular findings that may help explain why Black women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer are more likely to die from early stage disease. #ASCO2021 bit.ly/3fL44Cm

Having trouble finding the words to express the emotional experience of getting the covid vaccine today. I am so grateful. I got the vaccine for myself, those lost, my patients, family, and community. Thankful for all those that have sacrificed so much this year. #IGotTheShot
