Not only did I find an amazing community in #BTSM (brain tumor social media), I was welcomed with open arms and remain energized even though our scheduled chats are done. Lets still use the hashtag to connect and share updates. Thank you to all who built our community.

Great VORANIGO coverage on @YourMorning as @ServierPharma works with @CDA_AMC and other groups to give access to Canadian glioma patients. So thankful for @gliomadoc 's tireless work! Next: we need expanded access to grade 3+, full launch with public and private payers aligned.
Stoked to be on CTV National morning show talking about VORANIGO with our INDIGO patient firefighter Steve. Thank you @CTVMorningLive @ServierPharma @Sunnybrook
