My take on Galleri @WSJ @WSJopinion “People differ in how they value earlier detection, uncertainty, diagnostic risk and out-of-pocket cost. Once regulators have judged the evidence sufficient for access, informed patients and their physicians should be able to examine these results and decide together. Approval need not mean universal screening. It should mean that government doesn’t substitute one national judgment for millions of individual decisions.” @SylvesterCancer @asco @myESMO @SclcSMASHERS @FDA @LUNGevity @lungoncdoc @StephenVLiu @HHorinouchi @g_mountzios @sands_jacob @LauraAlderMD @oncodaily @OncoAlert @Latinamd @LuisPaz_Ares @RManochakian @LuisRaezMD @triparnasen @LaurenByersMD @LungCancerEu @alissajcooper @BZhangMD @NaglaAKarimMD @Annechiangmd @IASLC @NCCN @ASCO #WCLC26 @larvol @tribeMDUS @sylvestercancer @oncbrothers @chinmay @Jani_Chinmay @colazagasti @openmedicineHQ @myesmo @openmedkate @openmedben @chadinabhan @YoungLungCancer @OncodailyLung @ClinicalLung #LCSM @LungPolicy @dan_morgen wsj.com/opinion/the-galleri-…

Completely agree but I also think we need to identify patients who may benefit from this approach rather than a one-size-fits-all universal timing. Our study presented at ASCO 2026 suggests there may be scope for patient selection and identify those with intact circadian rhythms.

Before voters raised the homestead exemption five-fold (from $5k to $25k) in 1980, many said the sky would fall. It didn‘t.

Many people have contacted me on #Miami Referendum 1. This referendum is not “Backing the Blue”. The only blue being backed are blue state & city policies that will add $800M debt to working families. The money is there for first responders. Let’s find it. NO on Resolution 1

Gilberto de Lima Lopes Jr. came of age in the shadow of Brazil's dictatorship. This year, he casts his first ballot as a U.S. citizen. Read about what he's learned about the value of his vote: zps.la/4BzCuA2

Agree! Here is the piece I wrote about it back in May. connection.asco.org/do/looki…
🚨⭐️⭐️⭐️Just Published 👉Right in Time for @myESMO #ESMO26👉 Pleased to share our new paper in JCO @JCO_ASCO @ASCO 👉⭐️ “Time-of-Day Immunotherapy: Why the Field Still Needs Randomized Evidence.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️OPEN ACESS+ FREE for all to read & comment ⭐️👉@Timothee_MD , @Alfdoc2 & I set out to compare our views on RCTs. We AGREED on one point immediately 👉 THAT this question deserves a definitive answer 👉Retrospective data suggested that the time of day an immunotherapy infusion is given may affect outcomes. The first randomized phase III trial that appeared to confirm this has since been retracted, and the question is open again. 👉Our view: the optimal timing of immunotherapy remains unsettled, and robust randomized evidence is the only responsible way forward @OncoAlert @oncodaily ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO…
