Reflections on the 2025 CAHON Community Oncology Forum
MGM National Harbor, Oxon Hill, MD | March 29–30, 2025
Tucked within the National Harbor lies MGM—an unexpectedly dazzling venue. Yet it was not luxury that drew us, but legacy. Hundreds of oncologists and hematologists gathered not only to advance cancer care, but to honor a milestone: the 20th anniversary of CAHON—two decades of unity, mentorship, and excellence.
Dr. Shuang Fu, the lead organizer, captured the spirit of the weekend best: “To stay tight, to stay together, to learn together as a family.” This ethos guided every moment of the event.
Scientific Highlights
The forum started with full day of expertly moderated clinical roundtables. From melanoma and breast cancer to GI, GU, GYN, and lymphoma, each session challenged us to refine our thinking. The moderators and presenters brought together a national panel with deep subspecialty expertise, prompting spirited dialogue on diagnostics, novel therapeutics, and real-world decision-making.
In the afternoon, we turned our focus to professional development. The career roundtables offered transparent insight into academic advancement and community practices, transitions to industry or regulatory roles, and the importance of mentorship across generations. For many, these were the most personally impactful moments of the day. The best advice for the young generation echoed throughout the sessions — follow your passion.
Cultural and Personal Moments
As evening approached, the white coats came off. We stepped into the night with old friends and new colleagues, boarding a boat as the Gaylord sparkled behind us. The harbor, often overlooked in our hurried visits to D.C., revealed its quiet beauty under the turning lights of the Ferris wheel.
In the gentle ripple of the water, we noticed orange lanterns drifting—each inscribed with a wish. Watching them gather into a glowing crescent brought a sudden quiet. Dr. Ligeng Tian reflected that “If I had a lantern, I would write: Peace and prosperity for all”
Amid the soft rain of cherry blossoms, we celebrated with joy that felt both personal and shared. We saw, and were seen. We gave joy, and were transformed by it.
Closing Thoughts
This forum was more than a conference. It was a reaffirmation of our values. In a time of growing demands, CAHON continues to be a rare space of understanding, trust, and community—a family in the deepest sense.
Thank you to the COF planning committee and our gracious Maryland hosts for curating a flawless, moving, and unforgettable celebration.
As we each return to our hospitals, clinics, and labs, we carry forward more than knowledge—we carry forward connection.
To stay tight. To stay together. To learn together—as a family.

在National harbor里面,原来藏着MGM这样一个金碧辉煌的所在。 然而纸醉金迷与我们无关,120余名血液肿瘤专家,从全国各地赶来,汇聚华盛顿特区,庆祝CAHON成立20周年。
周六上午圆桌会议,以千变万化的案情为引,谈论癌症治疗的最新进展。黑色素瘤,乳腺癌,前列腺癌,胃癌,淋巴瘤,子宫内膜癌。诊断,治疗,临床试验,现实考量。或顿悟,或争论,时有抚掌相和,偶有面红耳赤。学无止境,医生们深有心得。
周六下午职业发展,从学术界到社区,从工业界到政府,选择各有偏重,没有一定之规,跟随心中挚爱,无畏改变,乃不二法则。年轻一代受到无私指引,CAHON 的魅力,在团结友爱,润物无声。
学术盛宴之后,蜕下西装,呼朋引伴登船而去,笑意盎然,未饮已醉。Gaylord华灯初上,摩天轮缓缓转动。多少次DC匆匆来去,原来夜光里水岸如此璀璨, 只是心中有扰,不曾静心驻足。
水波粼粼中橙亮色的是什么?一盏盏的灯笼,写满美好心愿投入河中,漂流汇聚,成弯弯的月牙。远处灯火喧嚣,岸上的国旗静静招展。忽然就很感动,倘使我有一只灯笼,我会写:国泰民安。
樱花雨纷纷扬扬里,这一场欢畅淋漓啊。
我们看见,与被看见。
我们感染喜悦,又被喜悦感染。
世事纷扰中, 这是一片净土。理解,赞美,信任,相助。
不只是专业协会,每一次CAHON的活动,都是友谊的盛筵。
感谢COF组委会,感谢马里兰local host,给我们一场盛大完美的聚会。
挥一挥衣袖,带走樱花粉的回忆,期待再会,七月Virginia, 十月NYOF❤️
