Important results from our BREATHE study. Unique thoracic oncology pressures: 📈 Rapidly evolving treatments, late diagnoses, high mortality & patient volume all fuel burnout. 📊 62% keep up with emerging data regularly, yet 30+% struggle to keep pace. More to come.
🗨️ What did the BREATHE study show about burnout & resilience in early-career thoracic oncologists? ⭐ Don't miss this interview with @lungoncdoc, who shares insights on the data presented at #NACLC25! ➡️ Watch now: https://t.co/ojRIQ8As1S

Each morning before clinic, I look at my list of patients for the day and pray for each person: For peace and presence during our time together, for insights into their care, for their wellbeing and healing, and for their families. Do you have rituals in your practice?
