Lots of very exciting cancer successes being reported at #ASCO2026 - try that hashtag over at the other place (sadly there's not as much here) or, as always, @statnews.com (a good place to spend your subscription budget)

@statnews.com is the first news/journalism publication I’ve paid for with my own dime (not subsidized by my school or employer). It’s harder to sift between signal and noise now more than ever. I think it’s well worth it to be a paying subscriber.

can’t think of a better time to subscribe to @statnews.com so their all star team of public health reporters can keep doing their thing
