In 1991, US cancer death rates hit an all-time high. Advances in early detection & treatment helped bring mortality rates down, averting 4.5 million deaths. Tell your lawmakers to support cancer research funding: brnw.ch/21wXB3j #SaveResearchStopCancer #ASCOAdvocacy

Investing in research today prevents suffering tomorrow & ensures our national scientific standing. We cannot turn away from millions counting on American ingenuity to live healthier lives. #ASCOAdvocacy #SaveResearchStopCancer Take action with us: brnw.ch/21wVvP3

The acting head of the CDC is a tech bro with no medical training who embraced Covid conspiracy theories. Talk about malpractice.

50 years ago, surviving cancer was a rarity. Federally funded research changed that for millions of Americans. But progress is now at risk. Unstable funding threatens to halt future breakthroughs #SaveResearchStopCancer #ASCOAdvocacy Take action with us: brnw.ch/21wVh17

"Patients with grade group (GG) 1 on biopsy can have higher grade disease on surgery. So GG1 = cancer". But also true of benign: "Patients with benign on biopsy can have higher grade disease on surgery"

ASCO is calling on lawmakers to uphold the U.S.’s role as a global leader in scientific and medical innovation and preserve vital federal cancer prevention and research funding. #ASCOAdvocacy Read our statement: shorturl.at/kZwjr

This needs to be amplified. The unfortunate increase in cancers in young individuals, especially for colorectal cancer, has created a public narrative that cancer rates are increasing

April is Testicular Cancer Awareness Month – a time to recognise the prevalence of this Below the Belt cancer and the incredible people working to improve outcomes. Their dedication is driving better treatments, improving patient care, and bringing hope to those affected.💙👏

It’s a travesty, but how do we respond? Is this a scenario where we argue there’s an individual need for each of these cancers or can we speak with one voice that cancer research is critical? In my view there’s a “divide & conquer” approach here.

Cancer research needs us right now @kidneycan.bsky.social

Katie provides the moral imperative far more eloquently than I can. For those who require an economic argument, the US research enterprise is the most robust in the world creating $100B in wealth. It is one of our most successful exports.

Wheeeeee

I’m already smarter!

The response of the science community to the last month is not about one statement or action. It's about all of us with our different frames. For Science's part, we are doing what we have always done and have no plans to change. My thoughts on what we can do. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

We are committed to advancing policies that improve patient access to high-quality cancer care. We continue to collaborate with all stakeholders to address existing barriers and ultimately improve cancer care for those in need.

With this logic pts who are heavy smokers should be labeled as “group 1 lung cancer” because of their high risk for clinically significant lung cancer.

We applaud new draft guidance from the @fda.gov & OHRP on incl tissue biopsies in clinical trials. In The Cancer Letter editorial, we stated guidance closely aligns w our ongoing efforts to improve ethics of research biopsies, esp biopsies that are mandatory. More: brnw.ch/21wQetz
