Maybe it's time to rethink how we talk about science.
For the first time, Nature family journals set their open access price, and it is around £9000. No, that's not a typo. Science is increasingly just a capitalist endeavour, where irrespective of your ideas, only those who get all the money can succeed.

Overheard at the hospital:
Door screener: Why are you wearing your mask on your elbow?
Patient: In case my elbow SNEEZES!

If you are a #medonc resident looking for a clinical research fellowship in breast cancer in 2021, consider our program at @SchulichMedDent @LHSCCanada.
Thanks @LHSFCanada and @LHSCCanada for supporting our fellowship program. schulich.uwo.ca/oncology/edu…
Can we safely omit RT to the uninvolved neck in oral cavity cancer? The PRESERVE protocol is now online: rdcu.be/b6gDt
My first weekend call ever got off to an eventful start - treating an intubated patient. Remembered this great study by @DrAlexLouie et al and felt thankful to have data for guidance!
Also thankful to have great residents and therapists to give me great advice. @DrCorreaRO
Is it benign or malignant? Is it recurrence or post-treatment change? Will it respond well to immunotherapy? See how #MachineLearning is being applied to answer these questions in this great summary by @JarydChristie

There are so many potential applications of #MachineLearning and #Radiomics in #HeadAndNeckCancer. @TriciaChinnery does a great job of discussing where things are headed here!

“Being clinician-scientists gives us the opportunity to innovate and improve patient care.” @nicholslab1 and @drdavidpalma are currently leading a second clinical trial focused on treatment for oropharyngeal cancer. schulich.uwo.ca/communicatio…
The re-opening of indoor bars have been associated with COVID-19 clusters around the world. It's not appropriate to have indoor bars open when my cancer patients still have to leave their spouse in the parking lot and face treatment alone @fordnation
As some areas of the province move towards Stage 3 of reopening today, @OntariosDoctors are calling on government to rethink opening indoor bars. #ONhealth #COVID19

Fun throwback to Toronto this morning @UofTDRO talking about applying to fellowships and jobs :) So nice to see everyone again!
We are thrilled to welcome back Dr Cecchini MD PhD to @LHSCCanada and @SchulichMedDent. @Path_Matt is an absolutely Clinical and Research superstar fresh of a top end fellowship at the @MayoClinicPath in lung cancer and molecular pathology. 🔥🔥🔥
Starting a new job today @LHSCCanada. So thankful to have the opportunity to serve the community I grew up in, and grateful for awesome colleagues, mentors and students. I couldn't have asked for a better place to work.

In 2019, @nicholslab1 and @drdavidpalma reported findings in @TheLancetOncol from the world’s first clinical trial comparing robotic surgery to radiation therapy for oropharyngeal cancer. They are now working on a second clinical trial testing two ways of de-escalating treatment.

Congratulations to @TriciaChinnery and @JarydChristie (w/ @lauren_zelko) for having their review articles on AI applications for head and neck and lung cancer, respectively, accepted for publication in the @CARadiologists Journal (CARJ)! Stay tuned for the full articles!
