Wafik S. El-Deiry: We have a strategy to mitigate radiation-induced lung injury and dermatitis but it remains as unfunded research

Wafik S. El-Deiry, Director of the Legorreta Cancer Center at Brown University, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“We have a strategy to mitigate radiation-induced lung injury and dermatitis but it remains as unfunded research thanks to The National Institutes of Health/National Cancer Institute (NCI) peer reviewers.

Here’s our preprint from June, 2023. Our manuscript continues to be under revision for publication which slows things down further as well. Meanwhile, patients wait.”
