Thanks to Dr. @jasonzheng for leading this innovative study examining crowdfunding by cancer survivors to address their financial hardship & health-related social needs! Policy solutions to improve affordability are needed. @ACSNews @ACS_Research
A large NLP model found >90,000 cancer-related crowdfunding campaigns launched over ~2 years of which one third cited financial hardship & health-related social needs. Only 11% actually achieved fundraising goals. @ACSCAN @AmericanCancer @DrRobinYabroff

🔥 Excellent intro from @TawanaTJohnson of the @AmericanCancer Society on the current landscape of #equity. #ASCOQLTY24 Despite 50 BILLION 💵 investment in DEI in 2020, companies are now cutting back, and states are pushing anti-equity legislation. #misunderstanding

Congrats Dr @jingxuan_zhao for leading this important study!
⛓️Proud of work by Dr @jingxuan_zhao evaluating incarceration & cancer mortality. Areas with high rates of people held in jails or prisons have higher cancer death rates. 🚨The carceral system may lead to negative health effects on the entire community. https://t.co/edFmvkDpuQ

Thanks for highlighting this study showing cost of care discussions are infrequently documented for patients with advanced NSCLC or melanoma. Efforts to increase discussions and relevant referrals are needed. @DrMichaelHSR @NCICareDelivRes

Despite recommendations for cost-of-care discussions as part of high quality cancer care, they are rarely documented in the medical records of individuals with advanced cancers. Increasing discussions and documentation critical, especially with high-cost treatment options.

Special Thnx to #ASCO24 HSR dinner host/organizer and scientific advisory council member @QasimHussainiMD! Thrilled to spend time with @TriageCancer leaders @cancerrights and @CancerAttorney and the always fabulous @fumikochino and fellow council member
3️⃣ of the @TriageCancer Scientific Advisory Council & the CEO + COO meet up at #ASCO24 HSR dinner. [I think this is the only photo that exists from the dinner because it was so amazingly fun & lovely on that rooftop that people actually just talked/relaxed & didn't selfie]

Love the fantastic @fumikochino! Thank YOU for everything. To be continued….
#ASCO24 would not be complete without some one-on-one time with the ever fabulous Dr @DrRobinYabroff. Her mentorship, sponsorship, and friendship has supported me in my faculty career. I cannot under estimate how much my career has benefited from her generosity. 🙏🙏🙏
