Several weeks ago, we were fortunate enough to have Dr. Mary Pinder (alternately referred to as Pinder-Schenck) from the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa join as the first of two speakers reviewing highlights in thoracic oncology from ASCO. She covered several key presentations in small cell lung cancer, early stage non-small cell lung cancer, and mesothelioma. Here's the audio and video versions of the podcast, along with the transcript and figures (a zip file to decompress, since it was too big in unzipped form to upload) for this program:

This program will be followed by Dr. Nasser Hanna's presentation of the highlights from advanced NSCLC at ASCO 2011, and then question and answer time as an additional podcast. The live webinar, as well as all of these podcasts, were developed in partnership with LUNGevity Foundation. We're very grateful for their support.
And for those of you reminded of how much you like Dr. Pinder, don't worry -- she's coming back for September.
