Amy C. Moore is joining Summit Therapeutics as Director of Patient Engagement and Advocacy @acmoorephd.bsky.social oncodaily.com/blog/255749 #Cancer #Medicine #PatientAdvocacy #Health #HealthCare #Oncology #OncoDaily

Digging around in the basement and found this old award from AACR broken. But I glued it back together. Because science may be down right now, but it’s not out. We will put the pieces back together.

Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it. Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on. Making this my pinned post.

I am proud to have worked with LUNGevity’s partners to develop these #lungcancer resources for members of the AANHPI community lungevity.org/health-equity #LCSM

As February begins, we embrace a month dedicated to recognizing the extraordinary achievements of Black individuals who have shaped our world. Their stories inspire us to rise, challenge the status quo, and create a future filled with hope and progress.

I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔

Having landed my first job outside my postdoc through a cold email, I know the power of that communication and how it can open doors www.nature.com/articles/d41...

As a scientist and an advocate, I am grateful for LUNGevity's commitment to continue to work on behalf of ALL people at risk for and impacted by #lungcancer as well as the researchers working to find new treatments. #LCSM

This will not get better www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The good news is my ping pong game has really improved this week. Burning off some steam!

As a cancer patient community, we are lost for words. Science and research is what keeps us all going. As Dr @choo.bsky.social said, “There are real people, real lives waiting on the science.” nature.com/articles/d4158…#LCSMSM

A good distraction from a cat-astrophic week for science

One of my frustrations with our work to understand the causes of #cancer #cachexia as part of Cancer Grand Challenges Team #CANCAN is the limitation of animal models that don't reflect the realities of the patient population. This development helps. #LCSM #lungcancer www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

On this day 13 years ago, I was speaking at the Georgia Capitol about the importance of #cancer #research. Despite what happened yesterday, we continue our work on behalf of those around the world at risk for, living with or impacted by #cancer.

First-Line Amivantamab Plus Lazertinib Wins EU Approval for EGFR+ Advanced NSCLC #lcsm #oncology www.onclive.com/view/first-l...

My cat may be slightly spoiled

9.5% MET and 7.9% EGFR detected in pts w lung SqCC with no smoking history. Important to improve testing in this group. We are finding more of this with reflex testing in early stage disease. #lcsm

We still have a long way to go to ensure that ALL patients benefit from recent scientific advances in #lungcancer. This study found that overall survival increased by 71% in patients with private insurance compared to only 24% in the uninsured in the US. #LCSM www.jtocrr.org/article/S266...

Biomarker testing can help identify actionable mutations in patients with SqNSCLC, especially in those without a history of smoking. Testing is not performed consistently in this setting. #LCSM #lungcancer www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Excellent review of lung neuroendocrine neoplasms by Dr Sen, @naglaakarimmd.bsky.social and team! Terrific discussion of molecular landscape, existing therapeutic challenges, and diagnosis & management strategies. #LCSM #LungNETs #SCLC @thelancet.bsky.social www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

THIS! Easy-to-use, available regimen significantly ⬇️ frequency & severity of Grade 2+ AEs SOC for patients on first-line Ami/Lazer. Like “Stay ahead of the pain,” “Stay ahead of the side effects” boosts QOL & ⬇️ dose interrupt/discontine—a win for everyone. 👏 #LCSM #SuppOnc bit.ly/4jiKwUz

Words Matter isn't just a catchphrase. It is a simple yet profound truth when talking about #lungcancer Thank you, Drs Jamie Ostroff & Smita Banerjee, for your efforts to develop a training that offers strategies for empathic communication to ⬇️ stigma bit.ly/4gWH1Si #LCSM #EndStigmaNow

LUNGevity's RFA Day was Jan 13. Our newest mechanism is my baby. We are excited to offer bridge funding to mid-career investigators working in the #lungcancer space. We support workforce development AND retention to ensure a continuous pipeline of leaders to transform the field and improve outcomes.

Very interesting given my work in the #lungcancer and #cancer #cachexia space. Are patients with RET+ NSCLC on TKIs protected against cachexia and could RET drugs protect patients with other oncogene driven NSCLC (ex EGFR) where weight loss often occurs? #LCSM www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I am holding space…for my cat 😂❤️

Individual in Louisiana has died from #H5N1 #birdflu, marking first US death from the virus.

0 ⭐️, does not recommend 😂

We were the only fools in our neighborhood sledding but we had fun! Lots of powder on top of the ice!

The clawed footprints of a 30-foot-tall predator and the sunken tracks of other dinosaurs were discovered in England, in what paleontologists are calling one of the most significant finds in Britain in nearly three decades.

That time in Jan 2020 when HomeGoods tried to warn me

🧵 #MedSky #IDSky #PublicHealth IMPORTANT The case of this 🇨🇦 adolescent with #H5N1 #BirdFlu is terrifying. Her only medical history was mild asthma, & symptoms started w/ fever and conjunctivitis. On d5 from symptom onset, she was admitted in respiratory failure, kidney failure, in shock … /1

One thing I learned from patients with #cancer is that words matter. "Prevention" is triggering for many - suggesting that perhaps they didn't do the "right" things. For individuals (not populations), "risk reduction" is preferred. A lesson I carry today from those living with this disease.

Be careful who you kiss tonight! Flu and other respiratory viruses are crashing the party

My NYE date is dressed in his finest tuxedo. And he’s sneaking kisses early. 😂

Reflecting on 2024 and how lucky and grateful I am to be able to combine my love of science with my heart for people in service of those living with and impacted by #cancer www.linkedin.com/posts/amy-c-...

This presentation I did with @jfreemandaily.bsky.social and the IASLC STARS program is now several years old but is still a good primer for patients and caregivers to understand the various types of data plots used in #cancer #clinicaltrials youtu.be/8CAv4Wnc2I0?...

Dr. Solange Peters is a hero to so many of us in the #lungcancer and #oncology community. We were incredibly honored to have her as the keynote speaker for LUNGevity's #ILCSC24. You have until midnight to watch her inspiring presentation - don't miss it! reg.eventmobi.com/ilcsc24
