In this episode of LungCancerRx, Eric Singhi, MD, Aakash Desai, MD, MPH, and Fawzi F. Abu Rous, MD, welcome Julia Rotow, MD to the conversation.
“I think we’ve been very lucky, in the world of EGFR-mutated lung cancer, that it has gotten so complicated,” explains Julia Rotow, MD, clinical director of the Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology and director of clinical research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston.
