The criticism of Trump, Kennedy, and Bhattacharya that was so subversive that the ADA had to eject the Editor-in-Chief of their flagship journal from their annual meeting for sharing it? Prior today it had fewer than 1000 views. Do your thing.

Parent and pediatrician here. All vaccines are still available & recommended. Talk to your pediatrician for more info. Know this: Even as our government shifts its recommendation language, I would never forgo the RSV, hepatitis A & B, or meningitis vaccines for my own kids.

As I pack for my early flight home tomorrow, another #ASHaiku from #ASH25: Another ASH done Much learned and connections made Can't wait till next year!

Aww, thanks @ash.hematology.org! Cute little Red is going to have to hang out in my office with me, and I'm sure we can get some use out of the sweet treat picker in clinic. It's been a great weekend at #ASH25!

Aman Wadhwa presents on risk factors for CNS relapse in 21,830 pts w/ de novo B-ALL across COG studies 2004-2019. Certain risk factors for BM relapse (age, female sex) did NOT predict CNS relapse. Cumulative incidence of CNS relapse 2.2%, median time 24.6 months. (1/2) #ASH25

Thai Hoa Tran from CHU Sainte-Justine in Montreal reports on 196 pediatric/AYA pts (age <25y) w/ T-ALL harboring ABL-class fusions (~5% of T-ALL) from multinational retrospective study within Pointe di Legno consortium. 69% w/ NUP214::ABL1, 8% BCR::ABL1. 72% male. Median dx WBC 83. (1/2) #ASH25

Sumit Gupta from @sickkidsto.bsky.social presents an update from AALL1731 (previously showed DFS benefit w/ blina + chemo in SR-avg and SR-high in pediatric B-ALL). In pts randomized to blina, Hispanic ancestry, EOI MRD were no longer negative prognostic factors. Re: genetic risks... (1/2) #ASH25

#ASHaiku for tonight: Lots of learning done Into the thunderstorm now Thankful for shuttle #ASH25

Learning about learning styles to help take medical training from feeling like drinking from a fire hose to a cool drink #ASH25 #MedEd

Great presentation on the importance of calling out stigmatizing language in our trainees (and colleagues), and patients reading notes can actually help strengthen the provider relationship. #ASH25 #MedEd

Sunday morning at #ASH25 means it's #MedEd time!

I have to say that as both a pediatrician and a mom of a school age kid, it is not lost on me that #ASH25 is the 67th... you're welcome 🙃

An #ASHaiku from a Midwesterner at #ASH25: Coming from cold means Normally cold meeting rooms Don't feel so chilly

The meeting is still young, but it will be hard to top a dark chocolate covered Oreo for favorite food at #ASH25 #ASHScavengerHunt

As a dog person, I fully support this part of #ASH25 (and also support the idea of a mid-afternoon nap if needed) #ASHScavengerHunt

Interesting work by Nikolai Gajic and colleagues highlighting the seemingly unique susceptibility of ALL to ferroptosis when at low cell density (like MRD settings) and not high cell density #ASH25 #ASHScavengerHunt

Not officially part of the scavenger hunt, but I also found a piece of my hometown helping with the shuttle service at #ASH25

The wall is just getting started! #ASH25 #ASHScavengerHunt

Starting the morning at #ASH25 finding a thing for the #ASHScavengerHunt. And it even has a small section specifically for #PHODocs!

Dusting off this app and the snow/cold because it's time for #ASH25! Excited for the #ASHScavengerHunt this year.

As a #childhoodcancer doctor, I'm proud to be able to advocate for children with cancer in any way that I can. Here is a piece that I recently wrote for #TheDetroitNews, who kindly published it. #PEDCan #CANSky www.detroitnews.com/story/opinio...

Prensner: ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ betrays children with cancer

In the United States, we’ve fought to achieve the world’s best care for children with cancer.

Starting off 2025 with the official publication of the story of a pretty awesome kid that I've had the pleasure of watching grow up over the past several years. Check it out! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author... #PHODocs #HemeSky #leusm

One last #ASHaiku for #ASH24: Early morning flight Lots learned and connections made But ready for home See you next year!

#ASHKudos once again to @ash-hematology.bsky.social for printing and hanging posters, making it super easy to show off our work! Come check it out tonight at poster 4177! #ASH24

#ASHKudos to Rachel Rau, Sumit Gupta, the whole AALL1731 study committee, all of our COG sites, and most importantly, our patients and families who made these results possible. So exciting to officially see these results on the big stage at #ASH24 (and presented by a great mentor too!)

Time for the annual filling of my #MedEd cup at the #ASH24 Medical Educators Symposium! Always a great way to start Sunday morning.

Presented at #ASH24: The addition of blinatumomab after induction chemotherapy in children with standard-risk disease of average or high risk of relapse significantly improved disease-free survival. Full AALL1731 trial results: nej.md/49CVkc1 #medsky

My adorable slippers from getting ASH'd last year by @ash-hematology.bsky.social made a return trip to San Diego to help relax while catching up on simultaneous sessions from #ASH24 (and #ASHKudos to Janice Staber for her talk on heavy menstrual clinics!)

It's warm outside but Meeting rooms are frigid so Layers are a must. #ASHaiku #ASH24
