Ayesha Junaid, a final-year MBBS student at Dow Medical College, shared Alicia Fong’s, Research Assistant, Mount Sinai Health System, post on LinkedIn, adding:
”Careers in medicine are rarely linear, and sometimes the most meaningful opportunities are the ones that take us in an unexpected direction.
Really enjoyed Dr. Karine Tawagi’s reflections on her journey through medicine and the role mentorship played in shaping her path.
One takeaway that especially stayed with me was her advice to ‘say yes to opportunities, but know when to say no.’
Such a simple yet important reminder to stay open to growth while being intentional about where we invest our time and energy.
The conversation also offers valuable insights into the evolving treatment landscape of muscle-invasive bladder cancer, making it a great intersection of career development, mentorship, and clinical oncology.
A thoughtful conversation from MedNews Week × OncoDaily and definitely worth watching!”
Quoting Alicia Fong’s Post:
”Medicine is evolving – and so are the paths we take to shape its future.
In this Medical Spotlight, Dr. Karine Tawagi shares her perspective on the rapidly evolving treatment paradigms in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), including emerging approaches and the future of MIBC care.
Along the way, Dr. Tawagi reflects on the mentors who shaped her journey into oncology and inspired her approach as an educator today.
