Did you know that scientists are developing new, simple blood tests that will screen for dozens of cancers at once? Diagnosing cancer early, when it’s easier to treat, can save lives. That’s why these multi-cancer early detection (#MCED) tests hold so much promise. (1/2)

Congress has just weeks to pass a bill to continue funding the gov't. Funding for vital cancer research & prevention programs is at risk. Watch this video to learn why sustained investment in research is critical. Then, send a message to your members of Congress & urge them to #ProtectCancerCures:

We (fellowships advisors) were anticipating the new solicitation on 8/22, but it was this update instead: www.nsf.gov/news/nsf-ann.... We're still waiting.
