Each interaction with this community has reinforced my belief that growth in oncology is not only about science, but also about empathy, collaboration, and shared purpose. I’m deeply grateful to ESMO for being a small but steady part of that journey 🙏🙏.

I had the chance to meet and connect with incredible people who share the same passion for patient care and progress. Later this year, I will be attending the Breast Cancer Preceptorship, another opportunity made possible through ESMO’s support. @myesmo.bsky.social

ESMO has contributed in a small but meaningful way to my growth as an oncologist. Through its travel grants, I was able to attend the Resilience Task Force in Barcelona — an inspiring experience that reminded me of the importance of wellbeing, balance, and community in oncology @myesmo.bsky.social

One of the most prevalent forms of Christian hypocrisy in our time is the aggressive push to legislate morality around every issue, from human sexuality to banning books to reproductive rights, then suddenly when it comes to mass shootings it's, "you just can't legislate the human heart. It's not a gun problem, it's a sin problem."
