It’s been a while since I went to the annual AAP/ASCI/APSA meeting but glad I could return with one of my mentees, Fiona Brooks. Proud of the work she’s accomplishing. #APSA2025 #AJIA #AJIA2025 @cwru @cwru_med @apsa_physicianscientists #thefutureisbright 🌟

This session brought us ESSENTIALS takeaways into the importance of bridging the gap in representation of patients in cancer clinical trials. Proud of #AACRAMC previous council member Dr. Islam and fellow panelists for such an important session.

This will have a crippling financial impact on academic institutions, increase unemployment, & stifle science
The $47B NIH budget generates ~$93B in economic activity/yr. Unparalleled 2.46-fold ROI. nearly every new drug has an origin in science funded by NIH incl pharma/biotch
The AACR has a long history of advancing cancer health equity from travel grants for minority faculty (1985) to the launch of Minorities in Cancer Research (2000) and the trailblazing Cancer Health Disparities conference (2007): www.aacr.org/about-the-aa... #BlackHistoryMonth
