SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Hyman Muss "Personalizing Care for the Older Cancer Patient"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Muss is a translational researcher who is involved in the design and of both clinical trials that contain collaborative trials involving both laboratory and health services research. His major interest is in cancer in older patients with a focus on the treatment of breast cancer in older women. Breast cancer is a disease of aging and the majority of women who die of breast cancer are 65 years and older. Older patients frequently receive poorer cancer treatment and Dr. Muss is interested in improving cancer care in such patients. He also has a major interest in biomarkers of aging and geriatric assessment in older patients with cancer. Dr. Muss and his colleagues at the Lineberger Cancer Center have developed a geriatric oncology program for the cancer center including a geriatric oncology consultation clinic.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Laurence E. Earley Lecture: Cornelia Dean "Doctors and Patients: Ignorance\, Irrationality and Risk"
DESCRIPTION:When ordinary people attempt to understand scientific\, medical or other technical information\, they may find themselves hampered by ignorance\, irrational patterns of thinking and erroneous ideas about risk. These problems are always unfortunate\, but when the information people are trying to understand relates to their own health\, they are particularly unfortunate.Clinicians can do a lot to reduce this kind of trouble\, Some useful steps are relatively simple\, others are more complicated. As the practice of medicine becomes more and more complex\, it is important for clinicians to embrace and adopt them. \nCornelia Dean is a lecturer at Brown University and a science writer and former science editor of The New York Times. In her editing tenure in the newspaper’s science department\, members of its staff won every major journalism prize as well as the Lasker Award for public service. \nThe Laurence E. Earley lecture honors Dr. Earley (1931-2012)\, an internationally known nephrologist who retired from UNC in 2000. \nWatch the video

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Patricia Rivera and Jason Akulian "Empyema Thoracis: Diagnostic Challenges and New Insights into an Old Disease"
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will review the epidemiology\, pathogenesis\, microbiology and morbidity and mortality of thoracic empyema. Two cases will be used as examples to highlight pitfalls in the diagnosis of empyema. The role of non-invasive studies including thoracic ultrasound and the approach to pleural drainage and interpleural therapy with tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and DNase will be discussed. \nPatricia Rivera specializes in the care of patients with lung cancer\, immunocompromised hosts\, lung screen screening\, novel approaches for early detection of lung cancer in high-risk patients\, chemotherapy and radiation-induced pneumonitis. She is a professor in the division of Pulmonary Diseases and Critical Care Medicine. \nJason Akulian is an assistant professor and Director of Interventional Pulmonology. His specialty areas are interventional bronchoscopy and pleural disease. \nWatch the video

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Bryan Roth\, "G-Coupled Protein Receptors"
DESCRIPTION:Bryan Roth is the Michael Hooker Distinguished Professor of Protein Therapeutics and Translational Proteomics in the Department of Pharmacology. He is a world-renowned scientist best known for creating an innovative scientific method that allows neuroscientists to manipulate and study brain circuits in health and disease. \nG-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent one of the most evolutionarily diverse superfamilies of the human genome. Roth’s lab studies all aspects of GPCR structure and function ranging from the atomic-level analysis of ligand-receptor interactions to in vivo studies. Currently they are focused on members of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) and opioid receptor families and their accessory proteins. \nRoth is also a Professor in the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. He has published more than 400 articles in many prestigious journals\, including Science\, Nature\, Cell\, and The New England Journal of Medicine.
