Spent the past few days visiting the @fredhutch.bsky.social to celebrate the impact of Dr. Rainer Storb on hematology & the thousands of patients living with blood disorders as the @ash.hematology.org Coulter Award winner. Dr. Storb’s passion, curiosity, and persistence is so inspiring. #ASH25

The need to support science & access to care has never been more urgent! Cuts to research & the elimination of key federal programs threaten to stall U.S. innovation and put the lives of millions with blood disorders at risk. Join the #Fight4Hematology: www.hematology.org/advocacy/fig...

My latest piece in @washingtonpost! this one on home genetics tests and what happens when your genes say you are at risk for #Cancer . 🧬🎗️ @ASH_hematology @AACR www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/202...
washingtonpost.com
Column | Are at-home genetic tests worth it? As an oncologist, here’s my advice.
Ask yourself how the genetic test results may affect your life. If the results come back positive, will you take steps to minimize your cancer risk?
