Just out @JACC CardioOncol, we intricately map #radiation exposure from #radiotherapy for #LCSM to different sub-structures of the heart to predict the risk of 5 different classes of #cardiac arrhythmias, pointing to possibly distinct pathophys pathways. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

“Radiotherapy is used in 50% of cancer patients, but only 5% of funding goes towards radiotherapy research”. A challenge around the world. Congrats @ProfAJChalmers.

It was a pleasure speaking at #GCOS2024 with Dr. Alcorn on a session on #cardiooncology in #radiationtherapy. The meeting was also top-notch and so informative! Great exchanges of ideas!

Interest in radiation therapy for non-neoplastic disease is reviving. Its use as an anti-inflammatory treatment is controversial but was well known >80 years ago. From NEJM 1939 nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… #radonc #radmed

NIH funding cuts could cost the U.S. $16 Billion and 68,000 jobs. An interactive tool from Joshua Weitz and team shows the local impact across the U.S. - down to the county level. This isn’t abstract - these numbers affect real communities and real lives: scienceimpacts.org
