My main takeaway was: Reflect on what you need to grow into a faculty member Share it in a thoughtful manner, and be open to what you can and cannot succeed without What are yours?!

The emerging link between tumor infiltrating clonal hematopoiesis is clear, but I wish they had spent more time on the mechanistic biology. To me, it is Clonal Hematopoiesis of Causal Significance (#CHCS) - an idea introduced in our Leukemia paper (shorturl.at/acDL9). 1/
Review series on clonal hematopoiesis: beyond blood cancers. Could clonal hematopoiesis (CH) influence the risk and progression of non-hematologic cancers? This review explores emerging links between CH and tumor biology. haematologica.org/article/vi…

Like many things in the CH field, it is hard to dissect associations of "CH" and "Survival." CH is associated with a number of other factors -- how do we discern that there is not confounding? It is why demonstrating that blood-only versus TI-CH is more compelling. 3/

Clonal hematopoiesis is important beyond progression to myeloid neoplasia. These mutations alter the immune system and can cause non-hematologic "benign" disease! This is why we wanted to separate out CH of causal significance. 4/
