Off to @OHSUKnight to talk @cohesinlab and cancer (and coffee and wine and food) and meet with amazing faculty like @juliamaxson @DrTedPBraun Jeff Tyner, Brian Druker and others! So excited to go but this one hates when I leave... #lifeonthejobmarket Image
Oh @travelportland you are off to a GREAT start! @stumptowncoffee Image
Bookending the trip with a stop at @pokpokpdx on the way to the airport! Thanks for a GREAT visit @juliamaxson @DrTedPBraun @OHSUKnight! Image
Wait wait wait. Lyft ride to airport. Driver asks if I treat cancer with sound waves. I say “no” but that there is some data on high frequency ultrasound therapy. He says that the Ancient Egyptians figures that out already...#overheardinportland 1/
The ancient Egyptians used tuning forks that could harness the tone of Ra and that it can cut natural salt into perfect cubes... #overheardinportland 2/
This tune was passed down from their origins as alien travelers from the three stars in Orion’s Belt. Each star has its own spectrum of light... #overheardinportland 3/
And to harness the power of light they built the pyramids to line up with the stars in Orion’s Belt such that the light can pass through the tunnels and into a pool of spiritual water with each Star having its own rainbow spectrum... #overheardinportland 4/
Then he changes gears and says he just found out how ayahuasca cactus works. It blocks the inhibitory molecule preventing dimethyltryptamine, releasing DMT and producing hallucinatory effects... #overheardinportland 5/
I just googled the last part and he is absolutely right including the chemical name dimethyltryptamine...🤯 I think I love this city! #overheardinportland

Almost exactly 17 years ago to the day, fresh off my 100 days post-bone marrow transplant for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, I had a visit from Aly Friedman. My flirting was pathetic, but endearing enough that we started dating. We’ve now been married over 12 years. #yourvelocity
And today, as part of the virtual @velocity_ride, our 5 year-old daughter wanted in on the fun! #yourvelocity
So today, I’ll be teaching her to ride a 2-wheel bike! Follow along and cheer her on! And donate to team “May the @DrGarySchwartz be with you” and to the amazing cancer research at @columbiacancer and donate at velocityride.org/index.cfm?fuse…

This is my last week at @sloan_kettering after 8 1/2 years. No one had as much impact as @rosslevinemd, and so with my final MSK tweetorial before @cohesinlab moves to @columbiacancer to start @cohesinlab, a few of my favorite memories and pearls of wisdom from @rosslevinemd 1/25
In 2016 during the Vice President’s @CancerMoonshot initiative, there was a planned visit for @JoeBiden to come to @sloan_kettering. I heard the original plan was to visit the @CharlesSawyers lab, but Secret Service preferred the RRL building. 2/25
@rosslevinemd met and spoke with VP @JoeBiden then led him through each laboratory bay where a handful of us were waiting to tell him about our work with a “cooking-show” style setup ready. My station was a western blot (an old, super unsexy protein quantification assay). 3/25

The Viny lab @cohesinlab is looking for motivated and courageous postdoctoral scientists to join our small but mighty group. @cohesinlab will open next month at @ColumbiaMed @columbiacancer & @CSCIColumbia (1/15)
We will focus on employing new and existing mouse models, primary patient samples, and state-of-the-art epigenomic/transcriptional assays for assessing 3-dimensional chromatin structure in the malignant context. These are the core principles by which we will operate: (2/15)
1. We are and will always be focused on improving the lives of the patients afflicted with cancer. Yes, we will work hard to secure grants and papers but those are simply the means to achieve our primary mission (3/15)

1/ Sometimes coincidence makes you take a beat. Today is day +6,209 (17 years) since my allogeneic bone marrow transplant for relapsed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Today I am rounding as the inpatient leukemia attending. I brought cake.
2/ And I’ve tweeted my annual transplant anniversary before—worthy of much celebration—but this year is different. Even different from my 10 years cancer free as a @sloan_kettering fellow on the BMT service.
3/ Because this year, while I celebrate on service, it’s also my last week as an attending physician at MSK.

1/ I’ve been thinking about this pledge and how best to take steps towards fighting systemic racism—while I don’t yet have a lab, like @SantoshVardhana I want to identify tangible actionable ways to make a difference. He and @leowanglab and @juliamaxson inspire me to plan now
2/ I pledge to bring in a URM high school or undergraduate for a paid summer internship who might not orherwise get #STEM exposure and then avail myself and my #WhitePrivilege to help mentor/navigate the system
3/ I pledge to seek out schools with less access to science education and commit to listen to what the teachers think the students need and provide education and time to address these areas

1/n Today is day 28 away from wife and daughter. The first half of this separation was spent as leukemia attending @sloan_kettering for both #COVID19 and non-COVID hospitalized patients before cohorting strategies began and while guidelines for stewardship of #PPE were in flux
2/ We continued to give world class care to our patients, but that meant high risk exposures to my team and myself. Friends and colleagues with cough or other concerning symptoms were sent immediately for testing thanks to the amazing laboratory medicine dept efforts by @EBabady
3/ Many healthcare workers were found to be positive and went home with a range of disease severity and symptomatology. One thing was clear--our exposure risks were just as much from each other as from the patients. #HeroesOfCovid19
