Dr. Suresh Ramalingam is a longtime friend of mine and a national leader in the field of lung cancer. He is the Director of the Lung Cancer Program at the Winship Cancer Institute at Emory University in Atlanta, and he was kind enough to sit down with me to talk about his perspective on the current optimal treatment for patients with stage III, or locally advanced, NSCLC. We also spoke about managing metastatic disease, which will be covered in a separate podcast. It's an audio interview, but if people watch the video version, there are some figures synchronized with the discussion.

Talking with other lung cancer experts is a fun way to clarify what strategies are emerging as clear standards and what issues remain controversial. Let me know if you have any suggestions about the format.
