Aryeh Metzger, WCM surgery resident, presented on how area deprivation index affects surgical outcomes in colorectal cancer patients in Queens, NY @ascrs.bsky.social @heatheryeomd.bsky.social @weillcornell.bsky.social

Thrilled to share this research published in #JAMASurgery Our findings highlight the positive impact of varied faculty on reducing trainee attrition. This is crucial as we work to address the growing physician shortage in the US. @jasosamd.bsky.social @heatheryeomd.bsky.social

Dawn Chirko, Cornell MS4, presented on how language concordance affects rectal cancer outcomes at #ASC2025 . @heatheryeomd.bsky.social
