As lung cancer treatments become more complex, is a collaborative tumor board more essential than ever? We're kicking off the 2025 NSCLC Creator Weekend™ series with an in-studio panel discussion on the multidisciplinary management of lung cancer. The panel includes experts from medical oncology, thoracic surgery, radiation oncology, and interventional pulmonology from major institutions in Los Angeles. --- This podcast is supported by an educational grant from Johnson & Johnson and Varian. --- SYNPOSIS They discuss the operation of tumor boards at their respective institutions, the impact of virtual meetings, optimal strategies for mediastinal staging, the management of early-stage lung cancer, and the emerging role of ablation therapy. The conversation dives into the complexities of treating patients with recurrence or metastatic disease, highlighting the importance of collaborative decision-making in navigating these challenging scenarios. The episode emphasizes the critical role of multidisciplinary tumor boards in providing informed, patient-centered care. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction06:59 - Role of Pulmonologists in Tumor Boards12:08 - Importance of Tissue Diagnosis24:52 - Lung Cancer Screening and Stigma34:01 - Interventional Radiology and Biopsies46:21 - Challenges with Immunotherapy and Radiation53:44 - The Importance of Multidisciplinary Teams54:24 - Final Thoughts --- RESOURCES American Lung Association 2024 Datahttps://www.lung.org/getmedia/12020193-7fb3-46b8-8d78-0e5d9cd8f93c/SOLC-2024.pdf National Lung Screening Trialhttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1102873 Checkmate 816https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2202170 PACIFIC Trialhttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1709937

"It's critical to identify those mutations found that are driving the cancer's growth and guide the personalized treatment based on those results. And important to remember, too, early testing is crucial for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In studies, it has been found to be associated with improved survival outcomes and reduced mortality," ONS member Vicki Doctor, MS, BSN, BSW, RN, OCN®, precision medicine director at the City of Hope Atlanta, GA, Chicago, IL, and Phoenix, AZ, locations, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the oncology nurse's role in NSCLC biomarker testing.

To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org Highlights From This Episode "These biomarkers are used to provide information about cancer's characteristics or behavior. In oncology precision medicine specifically, molecular tests can help with diagnosing a cancer that is maybe an unknown primary. It can help with monitoring response to therapy, detect recurrence of disease before other tests can find that, predict prognosis or how aggressive the cancer may be, and guide treatment decisions for targeted therapies." TS 3:14 "Some of the key biomarkers recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) to be tested in patients who have NSCLC are EGFR, ALK, KRAS, BRAF, MET exon 14 skipping mutation, HER2 which is a protein expression from an ErbB protein, PD-L1 which is a protein expression that's used to guide immunotherapy choices, and then finally there are three fusions: ROS1, RET, and NTRK. [These] are pretty rare but really important to be tested for in patients who have NSCLC." TS 3:46 "Another important challenge for nurses related to this topic is that these results may not reveal a targeted mutation for the patient and that could be very disappointing. So, being able to provide that emotional support to a patient if they have that result … you can actually reinforce with them that if [they] go onto another treatment that the physician decides to put [them] on, the tumor can change. New pathogenic variants can develop based on the treatment that they're getting, and another test can be done. And maybe at that time—a new biomarker that could be targeted—we'd be seeing on the new test." TS 7:32  "Another circumstance we didn't talk about yet is that maybe the result came back saying that the quality was not sufficient. And sometimes that happens, but that doesn't mean that we're at the end of the road, necessarily. So, you could explain to the patient that that may mean that possibly, a new biopsy would be ordered by the physician. Or if a new biopsy or another tissue sample is not available, then maybe the physician would pivot to sending a blood specimen for the molecular testing. So that would definitely be a way [nurses] could support their patients." TS 11:52 "In the case of patients with NSCLC, early testing is so important. So, advocating for that prompt biomarker testing to be done, making sure that it's comprehensive, that it's actually looking for all of those—I think it was 12 biomarkers—that I mentioned earlier. That this testing is done as soon as possible after diagnosis or progression. Something that I talk about all the time—personalized care, precision medicine—really matters. So, tailoring treatments for patients based on the biology of the tumor that's driving the cancer's growth is really crucial if you're going to be working as an oncology nurse. Another crucial thing, because it's changing so quickly, is to stay informed." TS 16:23

"Certain formats consistently trigger AI Overviews: clear explainers and definitions, step-by-step how-tos, detailed comparisons and buying guides, and local discovery content with consistent business details," writes Laughlin Rigby, Digital Transformation & AI Director of Core Optimisation The search experience has fundamentally changed. Users no longer just scroll through ten blue links, they are reading answers. Google's AI Overviews, now reaching 1.5 billion users across 200+ countries, synthesise trusted sources into concise, cited summaries above the fold. Meanwhile, agentic browsers like ChatGPT Atlas, Perplexity's Comet, and Edge Copilot sit beside the page, comparing options and completing tasks on behalf of users. This shift demands a new approach: be citable, machine-readable, and action-ready. The classic pillars of SEO remain foundational. What's changed is how we express them, ensuring machines can reliably extract and act upon our information. The behavioural shift When AI-generated answers appear above the fold, click-through behaviour transforms. Traffic concentrates on pages offering canonical facts, original insights, and proprietary data, which is precisely what AI assistants quote. Expect fewer low-intent sessions but higher post-click quality. KPIs must evolve to emphasise assistant-layer visibility through citations and mentions, alongside completion metrics like enquiries and bookings. The content strategy follows: write answer-first, then layer in nuance. Address likely follow-ups on the same page. Becoming citation-worthy Earning citations from AI systems requires deliberate choices. Remain discoverable. Allow reputable AI crawlers like OAI-SearchBot in your robots.txt. Keep high-value pages indexable and track assistant-origin traffic. Structure for dual audiences. Employ semantic HTML and WAI-ARIA. Write one idea per paragraph. Use proper tables for data. Implement schema.org markup for Article, Product, FAQPage, Organisation, and Person, always including datePublished and dateModified timestamps. Clear headings and concise sections improve both human comprehension and machine extraction. Deploy focused FAQs. On high-intent pages, add four to six genuine questions marked up as FAQPage schema. Place direct answers first, then link to details. Demonstrate provenance. Feature named authors with verifiable credentials. Cite reputable sources and maintain claim consistency across channels. Maintain currency. Regularly update priority pages, eliminate duplicates, and establish a single canonical source for each claim, price, or specification. Provide reliable APIs. AI assistants act, not just read. Publish OpenAPI endpoints for dynamic information like prices and availability with stable IDs and clear errors. For complex interactions, develop an official integration. Measure rigorously. Track AI Overview presence, citation share, and SERP features. Monitor assistant referrals using server-side tagging. This is continuous, data-driven optimisation for the assistant era. Campaign strategy in the AI Era Use consented, verifiable sources and label AI-assisted copy where appropriate. Develop a concise brand style guide documenting preferred phrases and model summaries to help your tone survive AI paraphrasing. Establish a visible "source of truth" for prices, policies, and key figures. Position this prominently and mirror it in structured data, ensuring AI assistants quote your facts directly. Agent-friendly design Agentic browsers navigate via the accessibility tree, making inclusive design both ethical and strategic. Bind inputs with proper labels, use descriptive button text, apply ARIA landmark roles, keep states predictable, and design forms for autofill and programmatic submission. Your goal: the agent completes the intended action correctly, first time. Preparing for agentic commerce September 2025 brought two competing standards: OpenAI and Stripe's Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP), now powering live...

Embracing failure is essential to a successful AI strategy. It's not a setback but a catalyst for learning, innovation, and resilience that drives continuous improvement and real business impact in the evolving world of generative AI.

By Adam Turteltaub Few people know more about conducting a compliance investigation than Georgina Heasman, Senior Manager, Global Investigations at Booking Holdings and Wendy Evans, Senior Corporate Ethics Investigator, Lockheed Martin.  The two of them are the co-authors of our new book Fundamentals of Investigations:  A Practical Guide  and lead our Fundamentals of Compliance Investigations Workshop. Not wanting to miss out on their expertise, we scheduled two podcasts with them. In this, the first of the two, they share a broad overview of best practices for conducting investigations.  Those include ensuring that even compliance team members not responsible for investigations have at least a fundamental understanding of them. As for the investigation itself, they explain, to go well it begins with the first report.  There has to be a clear line of communication and a culture that encourages employees to come forward. Once you receive that initial contact, it's important to remember that it tells the story only from one side. You need to ask questions to clarify what was seen and heard and start thinking about what other information you will also need to gather.  To keep the information flowing, they recommend telling the reporter and everyone else you interview to reach out to you again if additional information comes to mind. While testimonial evidence is invaluable, don't stop there.  As you gather the who, what, when and where, be sure to look for the documentary evidence that you need, which requires having strong relationships with departments that have it, such as HR and security.

Where's the line between humor, banter, and outright disrespect? In this episode, Jaz is joined by Joseph Lucido from the States to tackle these tough questions head-on.

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and EO Radio Show episode 141 is a refresh of episode 37, covering key questions to ask when thinking about launching a new charitable organization. Recently, I've seen a surge in interest from clients who want to incorporate a new charity. At the same time as I'm recording this episode, the federal government is still in shutdown. The IRS recently announced on October 21 that during the lapse in appropriations, applications for determination letters for tax-exempt status will not be processed. Even before the shutdown, applications had slowed. Generally, they could take a year or more to be processed. We have been seeing straightforward grant-making foundation applications being processed in about four months. Very small organizations with budgets of less than $50,000 and using Form 1023 EZ, we're getting their IRS determination letters a little bit quicker than the current state of play, but those organizations with substantial budgets had to plan on a long lead time before getting their IRS determination letter. Some new organizations will be comfortable beginning operations before the IRS letter is received, and that is feasible if there are grant funds available that are not dependent on that IRS determination letter. But for new charities that are depending on substantial contributions from individuals, grants from private foundations, or gifts from donor-advised funds, that IRS determination letter becomes more important.  So, with all that being said, it is more important than ever for today's founders to carefully consider all the requirements for the startup of a new charity so that they can launch it as quickly as possible. This episode covers key questions to ask when considering forming a new nonprofit. In addition to the tax compliance concerns, there are also state law requirements and practical considerations to think about.

On this 300th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I want to teach you one of the simplest, most effective habits for running your business like a professional: the weekly planning session. If you've ever wondered how elite-level entrepreneurs and advisors stay focused, consistent, and calm in the middle of chaos, it's not luck—it comes down to elite-level planning and staying in a rhythm of consistency. Their weeks are built by design. The weekly planning session is your reset button, your opportunity to move from week to week proactively. It sets up each week to ensure that what you're doing each day aligns with your quarterly goals, annual goals, and your 3 Year Vision. Done right, it's the single most important 60 to 90 minutes of your week. When you run a high-performance business, you can't wing it. No one is that good. A weekly planning session ensures you're grounded, focused, and prepared—moving seamlessly from week to week. Without it, you drift into reactive mode, chasing what's urgent instead of what's important. With it, you gain control of your calendar, energy, and your outcomes. Best Practices for a Weekly Planning Session: → Create a recurring calendar invite. Choose the same time every week. Allow 60–90 minutes. Protect this block like a client meeting. → Review all correspondence from the previous week. Ask yourself: Did I miss an opportunity? → Review your previous week's calendar. Identify what worked, what didn't, and what needs follow-up. → Review your upcoming week. What events or meetings need preparation? → Review your CRM. Identify your "Next 10"—the retention and conversion process. → Identify one project that aligns with your quarterly goal. → Review your 3 Year Vision. See it. Feel it. Experience it in advance. When you treat your weekly planning session as a non-negotiable, you'll find yourself more grounded, better prepared, with way fewer missed opportunities. You'll walk into Monday playing on offense without the anxiety of not being prepared. Calculate the monetary value of the missed opportunities with your clients just in the last year. What's that number? $1M, $5M, $15M in production? What did you leave on the table? Get out your calendar right now and schedule a recurring appointment with yourself for 60-90 minutes each week. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Delanie Fischer chats with John Wang, author of Big Asian Energy, about confidence, culture, and the power of conversation. They unpack how cultural conditioning, fear, and the desire to be "good enough” shape identity and self-worth. John shares the lessons he learned from his year-long experiment in radical honesty—during which he came clean to friends and family about past lies and committed to always speaking his mind in every interaction—and reflects on how this experience led to deeper connections and a new way of being. Discussed in this episode:  What Is Charisma, Gravitas, and Executive Presence?  Biases, Stereotypes, Discrimination, and Coded Language  Asian American Culture and the Workplace  Fear of Conflict, Confrontation, and Avoidance  The 1 Year of Radical Honesty Experiment 7 Adaptive Patterns: Achiever, Fixer, Chameleon, Charmer, Commander, Rebel, Invisible One  The Belief Behind Your Behavior and The Fear (and Illusion) of Death  Rejection as Redirection to Alignment + Finding Community and Belonging  The Achievement Monster & How To Get off the Treadmill  Internal vs. External Validation & When Affirmations Don't Work (Try This) Self-Worth and Creating Your Own Metric for Success  High-Context vs. Low-Context Conversation  Self-Diminishment vs. Respecting Cultural Norms  The 6 Levels of Mitigating Language (Great for Baby Steps!)
