#CanSky have you ever had the chance to speak to cancer researchers about their #research at an event for example? How did it make you feel about your own cancer journey? How did it make you feel about the state of cancer science and how did it make you feel about the doctors and scientists?

Trump's attacks on the Department of Education should remind us never to elect to high office anyone without a stake in society. We suffered the same in the UK from 2010, when people who used private healthcare and private schools ripped up public services.

Dad's 3 months scan results just came in after his ipi/nivo course, everything he had has got smaller, some by a little, some by a lot but he's also got new nodes in his lymph node, small bowel and retroperitoneal nodes and one in his lungs has grown. #KidneyCancer

Don't just post a flag, #donate to #Ukraine

#Zelensky looks like he's about to cry, he knows the lives of his people are at stake more than anyone. #Trump thinking #Putin won't break any promises with him is a joke. #Europe needs to act together fast, this is over. #RevokeTheStateVisit we don't want these bullies in our continent.

With the Trump interference with NIH grants, many scientists are hurting. Some received good scores last fall and are just waiting for council and award. But NIH’s budget must go out this year, all spent Sept 30. Universities MUST provide bridge funding to keep labs intact for the next few months.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have developed a nasal COVID-19 vaccine that BLOCKS transmission of the virus. This suggests vaccines delivered directly to the nose or mouth could play a CRITICAL role in containing the spread of respiratory infections. Phase I clinical trials HAVE BEEN APPROVED! 🧪🧵⬇️
