Jon Stewart on the ICE murder of Alex Pretti: “They’re lying. We saw it. That’s how brazen they lie when they know we’ve seen the truth. Imagine how they lie when there’s no evidence to contradict them. Maybe that explains why Alex Pretti really was a threat. Because he was brandishing a weapon. A handheld, aluminum, 1080p, 60fps weapon of mass illumination. Because there is nothing more dangerous to a regime predicated on lies than witnesses who capture the truth”

Outstanding presidential address Dr. Ron Weigal at the American Surgical Association annual meeting!
I study breast cancer in large part because of my time @UIowa_Surgery in the Weigel lab. Well deserved honor for a truly exceptional mentor.
One of the perks of being Society of University Surgeons @UnivSurg President is the honor of announcing the SUS Lifetime Achievement Award winner, the highest honor in our organization.
Please join me in congratulating the 2024 SUS LTAA winner - Dr. Ron Weigel @UIowa_Surgery .
Dr. Weigel is an accomplished surgeon scientist, educator, mentor and leader. His peers nominated him based on his incredible contributions to academic surgery, and service.
Congrats Ron! Looking forward to your acceptance speech on Tuesday Feb 11, 2025 at #ASC2025 in Las Vegas.

While it’s very rare, male breast cancer can be more challenging to treat and has poorer outcomes compared to breast cancer in women.
As we close out #MensHealthMonth, we highlight BCRF investigator Dr. Jose Pablo Leone, who seeks to address this.

New paper:
Most approved drug combinations for advanced cancer (1995-2020) have predictable clinical efficacy, because they have additive effect on Progression-Free Survival times.

Great work @kchen315 !
We developed an AI model which can use intra-op specimen mammography to predict the pathologic margin status of partial mastectomy specimens with accuracy equal to surgeons and radiologists. @Dr_KGallagher @shawnmgomez
