As a field, we've spent millions figuring out the role of ADT with RT for INT risk prostate cancer, but in this project we found that providers still lack consensus about ADT prescription in real world practice. Work in @IJROBP with @MROQC1 @SamReganMD @rtdess

The RPA is in clinical use in South Africa! Our first patient (with cervical cancer) was contoured/planned and approved today at the University of the Free State, Bloemfontein. @MDAndersonNews @nethertonians

Very grateful for the opportunity to present at @btfoundation cancer health disparities conference! In collaboration with @CancerRayos, we showed that longitudinal lectures significantly improved contouring knowledge compared to written resources alone.

First time advocating with my congressional representative's office (@RepDebDingell) as part of the UMich Residents and Fellows for Global Health Equity. We're asking for federal funding to support global health residency training. Let me know if you're interested in joining!

I now have a compelling answer to the question "what's the most fun you've ever had at a conference?" @AORTIC_AFRICA
