Honored to receive a 2026 ASCO YIA.
This award will support my clinical trial evaluating SkinScan3D, an AI-powered 3D imaging device for monitoring Kaposi Sarcoma.
My sincere thanks to my mentor, Dr. Lee Ratner, and to the Hem/Onc Fellowship Program at WashU. – at Chicago, IL
I had the opportunity to share perspectives on inequities in cancer care, and I am even more motivated to achieve my long-term goal of advancing oncology in low-resource settings.

Ethiopia has finalised its preparations and stands ready to host the distinguished delegations of the 39th African Union Summit and the Second Italy–Africa Summit.
As you gather in the diplomatic capital of Africa, I warmly invite all distinguished delegates to plan ahead and extend your stay beyond the halls of the AU to experience a new era of African-led tourism development.

45% of #Cancer deaths in the #US are attributable to modifiable risk factors, with cigarette smoking alone accounting for 29% of the deaths. This underscores the importance of focusing on prevention to substantially reduce the US cancer burden.

🫶Happy heavenly birthday, Dr #RegHamlin!
✨Today we celebrate this legendary #humanitarian who together with his wife, Catherine, started the world's only specialist hospital for women with #obstetricfistula injuries.
❤️Thank you, Reg for everything you did for Ethiopian women!
My amazing wife, Bilain, has matched at her top-choice pediatrics residency program at @WUSTL! I couldn't be happier that we'll be training side by side in our dream programs at @WUHemeOncFellow and @WashU_PedsRes. Praise God!

Still in 2023, academic publishing and scientific conferences are the following:
-you pay to submit your work
-you review articles for free
-you pay to publish your work
-you pay to read or see your work
-you pay even more to make your work free for everyone
Is that right?
