Join me in standing up to anti-Asian racism. Hate crimes against Asians are on the rise and needs to stop. @dearasianyouth
Even as we’ve battled the pandemic, we’ve continued to neglect the longer-lasting epidemic of gun violence in America. Although the shooter’s motive is not yet clear, the identity of the victims underscores an alarming rise in anti-Asian violence that must end.
Congratulations to the newest member of our lab, @MeganHong97, for receiving a summer NSERC grant. Well done Megan and welcome to the lab.

First results of the CM8HW are out! Nivo/ipi vs chemo in 1st line dMMR mCRC. We knew it would be positive, but wow 🤯 HR 0.21 for PFS and + across all subgroups. No crossing of the curves! Toxicity very manageable (don’t be scared of low dose ipi1).

The nuance here is important: people want to post their experiences, not re-live them. Projection, not reflection. Surface, not depth. It’s a strange trend that we have collectively agreed to enjoy things a little less so that our peers can see us perform enjoyment.
