    When we met, we talked about Beau. And when I told @JoeBiden I was in Beau’s class in college, he held my hand and wouldn’t let go of the connection to his lost son. This is our next president.

    Beside myself with joy to join the outstanding research and clinical faculty, scientists, nurses, and pharmacists @SylvesterCancer @UMiamiHealth as chief of #Hematology in January!!! 😃😃🥳🥳 Also bittersweet to leave my friends, colleagues, and mentors @ClevelandClinic 😢😢😢
    Thrilled to receive official word from ⁦@DrSDNimer⁩ noting that superb hematologist, clinical researcher and humanist ⁦@MikkaelSekeres⁩ will be our next Chief of #Hematology. I look forward to all that he will do here ⁦@SylvesterCancer⁩ ⁦⁦@UMiamiHealth

    On my final day ⁦@ClevelandClinic⁩, the snowy weather makes the transition to ⁦@SylvesterCancer⁩ ⁦@UMiamiHealth⁩ a little easier! Will so miss my wonderful CLE friends, colleagues, and especially patients from the past 18 years. Can’t wait for new ones in MIA!🏝

    This Monday, 9/14, I pass the torch as Director of ⁦@CleClinicMD⁩ Leukemia Program, my role for the past 10 years, to ⁦@CarrawayHetty⁩! It is so comforting to know our team of 60+ will be led by someone with such high intellect, insight, and EQ. Good luck Hetty!

    So exciting, the galleys from When Blood Breaks Down @mitpress have arrived! Available April 2020 (and hoping that more than just my mother reads it, though that alone would be a win) 🤗

    My journalist dad would insist on buying the actual hard copy @WSJ newspaper for this essay on the importance of getting a second opinion when you have a #Cancer diagnosis! Glad our local @Publix still carries them!
    My first opinion piece for @WSJopinion! Are You Sure You Have Cancer? Why it is oh-so important to get that second opinion, on both your diagnosis and treatment. @SylvesterCancer @UMiamiHealth @mitpress @nih_nhlbi @ASH_hematology wsj.com/articles/are-y…

    “There is a difference between statistical significance and clinical significance. Get a large enough cohort together, and you will achieve the former. That by itself does not ensure the result achieves clinical significance.” Wise words by @aaronecarroll.
