Today, I can finally say we went full circle. From being a patient to being accepted into radiation oncology!
Thank you to my support system, family, mentors, friends, and especially @MollyAlam.
To my fellow cancer thrivers, this one is for you.

- Still reeling from the news about @TaniguchiMD . He was the best of us. A remarkable soul whose selflessness and kindness touched many, myself included. CT loved a good tweetorial, so in seeking words, I'll share memories of him. #RememberingCT
- So thrilled to have matched in #radonc at @MDAndersonNews! We are looking forward to help #endcancer alongside our second family! @TaniguchiMD @colbertle @ebludmir @yogagirldd @ChelseaPinnix @ACKoongMDPhD @MollyAlam #MatchDay2021
- Humbled to be nominated by our great students and inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society @UTSWSurgeryLife as one of the resident inductees. I promise to keep providing patient-centered and humanistic care everyday.
- Who is writing the results of the latest cancer trials? @VPrasadMDMPH, @oncology_bg and many others have asked this question repeatedly. In this piece in @OncJournal we answer that question and more. @JAbiJaoudeMD @cd_fuller @TaniguchiMD @ebludmir bit.ly/35KMI3M 1/4
- Replying to @RKouzyMDThe world seems very dark without CT. It's hard to imagine moving forward, but his influence shaped me profoundly. I'm committed to upholding his legacy of kindness and curiosity. I invite you all to share your memories of him. Thank you for everything, Sensei.
- 1/ Today, cancer research has been deemed nonessential due to #COVID19. We wrote an essay that was just published @Cancer_Cell about what issues we need to address as a global community as we recover. @colbertle @JAbiJaoudeMD @ebludmir @TaniguchiMD tinyurl.com/v26tmnd
- Yesterday we celebrated the life of the one and only @TaniguchiMD. It was filled with laughter, tears, and hope. @jae_phan put together this touching video to commemorate Cullen's spirit. @ACKoongMDPhD @PrajnanDasMD @Aiims1742 You can find it here:
- ERAS finally certified and submitted! #match2021 #radonc Grateful for all the help and support I received along the way.
GIF - Replying to @RKouzyMD and @JAbiJaoudeHe had a quick wit and a knack for saying just the right thing. 'It's all part of the master plan,' he'd say. His humor and wisdom were his gifts to us. CT elevated everyone around him, without asking for anything in return. Above anything else he believed in "good people”
- Replying to @RKouzyMDCT took me under his wing as a clueless medical student from across the world and made sure we had family here in the US. He believed in me and @JAbiJaoude like no one did and always made sure we were well supported, fed, and had everything we need to excel.
- Replying to @RKouzyMD and @JAbiJaoudeSince meeting him for the first time, he had a presence to him. He can uplift any room with his infectious energy. His face lit up when talking about his family, his famous brisket, or his love for mitochondria. Food was truly his love language, but he was a storyteller at heart.
- I am super excited to be joining the @TaniguchiMD lab at @MDAndersonNews to work on #PancreaticCancer and do my own share in helping #endcancer.
