📍This change makes it substantially easier for authors aiming to contribute to the CT Surgery literature, and I’m deeply appreciative to the Editors for their forward thinking. 📍

I get asked a lot by med students whether being out and proud can affect their residency matching prospects

Truest truth I know is that it’s ok to not match at a place that uses that against you. Their loss, your gain.

A good program for you is a program that will welcome it

Don't miss tonight's MD Anderson Cancer Center-UTHealth Houston CT Surgery Debate-Style Journal Club! Discussing chemo-IO + surgery vs chemoxrt + IO in stage III NSCLC. All are welcome to join and CME available! #LCSM #radonc #oncsurgery tecog TSRA

Why do I operate on stage IV NSCLC?

Yes, patient selection is critical. Yes, the cases can be technically quite challenging.

But, sometimes we provide life-changing hope to patients. This privilege is the reason why I became a doctor.

IMHO Social media can help amplify your academic career. But it can never take the place of the needed work.

As Jeff Matthews MD has noted: “no substitute for substance”

(At least I think Jeff Matthews MD said that…😊)

Having an informative weekend with #STSLeadership Institute. Wonderful acting from the faculty about dysfunctional team dynamics.

I am a CT surgeon, and I’m privileged to play an enormous role in the lives of all four of my children as well as those of my patients and their families. To be clear, women are wanted, needed, and can succeed in CTSurgery.

We are eager to start the conversation and collaborate on much needed work. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons
