It never ceases to amaze me that I work with a fantastic group of people who helped me put this together in three hours. Thanks @wandering-gu.bsky.social for answering questions about former President Joseph Biden’s diagnosis: michmed.org/WXXej.

Thank you!!

Great working with Patrick Squires and the Merck team on this MIBC RWA #gu25 @ascocancer.bsky.social

Sheesh! #GU25 @ascocancer.bsky.social

So excited about this work, led by UMich Pathologist Cathryn Lapedis. We're accustomed to providing patients with reports that are uninterpretable to them, then having a subsequent decoding discussion. What happens when we make the reports understandable the first time [email protected]

Fascinating!

“Most study participants (44-61%) could not extract basic information—including whether they have cancer—from standard prostate cancer pathology reports but [in contrast] 93% were able to understand this diagnostic information from” patient-centered pathology reports

I've published literally hundreds of studies, but this one will always be special. I'm so proud to have helped Dr. Cathryn Lapedis show so convincingly how BAD current prostate biopsy pathology reports are compared to a simple patient-centered design. PLUS: my first JAMA article ever!

Thrilled to announce that my dear friend and colleague, Jay Simhan, MD, FACS, has been named Chair of Urology at Temple University Hospital!

I’m thrilled to partner as two departments under the Fox Chase-Temple Urologic Institute to elevate our already world-class program to even greater heights!

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

So fun to go on Backtable Urology and highlight the work of the AUA/ASTRO/SUO prostate cancer salvage therapy guidelines committee. open.spotify.com/episode/7EwC...

Hey I was there for Coffey-Holden 2014! (Although the pic from my run looks different…)

Pics are unreal. Where?

Found this guy in beautiful Linthicum recently @dr-coops.bsky.social

It is with great sadness that we mourn our cherished friend and colleague Felix Feng, MD. Felix was a distinguished physician-scientist and beloved at @ucsfhealth.bsky.social. His vision, dedication, and commitment inspired colleagues, peers everywhere, and patients. cancer.ucsf.edu/in-memoriam-...

It’s great data, but the NPV isn’t necessarily all that meaningful given that only a handful those patients underwent a biopsy. Eg could have just performed a biopsy on none of those patients and get an NPV of 100%.

You guys were a 🔥🔥 team

Huge kudos to the NCCN for officially incorporating prostate cancer into the Genetic/Familial High-Risk Assessment Guidelines. We've come a long way!
