HER2 in UC @koshkin85 et al evaluated 2,024 advanced UC tumors for HER2 by IHC & ERBB2 amplification! High HER2 expression (IHC ≥1+) was common—even w/o amplification. We wrote an editorial published in @JCOPO_ASCO to unpack the clinical relevance 🧵 🔗 ascopubs.org/doi/pdf/10.1200…

Happy to share this passion project investigating heart function in BRCA mutation carriers. LV heart strain was worse in BRCA carriers compared to controls, which may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease during cancer treatment🫀💊 @cshufeltMD @JanetWeiMD @rbashoMD link.springer.com/article/10…
