Giving thanks for all amazing and inspiring women around the world on International Women’s Day We will never give up fighting for equality, for what is just and fair, and for each other 💪 #WomenOfTheWorldUnite #WomenInScience 🧪

Today is the #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience - celebrating women across our @helloeacr.bsky.social community 🙌 From Board members across Europe to the #EACR HQ team and the scientists we serve worldwide, women play a central role in advancing cancer research every day #WomeninScience 👩🏻‍🔬🧪

🙏🏽 Many thanks to Prof. Johanna Joyce from University of Lausanne @unil.bsky.social, Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research🎗️ for her stimulating talk on the #tumour ecosystem at the public #NextGenBioeng seminar @ethz.ch #Roche | #pRED #teamIHB 👇🏽 www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Today is #WorldCancerDay ~1 in 5 people will develop #cancer in their lifetime Each diagnosis affects not just one person, but families, communities, and futures Grateful today for patients, clinicians, researchers & advocates - and to appreciate that progress depends on acting together #WCD2026

The EACR Board have met in Paris this week to review our progress and set priorities for the year ahead, with our members and the wider cancer research community at the heart of it 🤩💙

For today’s #blueskyartshow, a sky filled with clouds over the historic Lavaux vineyards and Lake Geneva #clouds #photography ⛅️

A team led by Ludwig @unil.bsky.social’s @lbejarano.bsky.social & @johannajoyce.bsky.social has discovered that a protein made by cancer cells, CD13, helps them establish colonies in the brain—identifying a potential drug target for the prevention or treatment of brain metastases. bit.ly/4afX64r

Tumor-derived CD13 helps cancer cells colonize the brain 🧠🧪🔬 Led by @lbejarano.bsky.social w/ many wonderful collaborators in @joycelab.bsky.social and in Lausanne 🙌 @cp-cellreports.bsky.social @fbm-unil.bsky.social @unil.bsky.social @ludwigcancer.bsky.social Article: www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Huge congrats to @manuelthery.bsky.social and all the Cytomorpho lab. The "Living Architectures" performance at @museeorsay.bsky.social was breathtakingly beautiful

Why do so few cancer cells manage to form metastases - and what helps the rare ones succeed? Delighted to share our first publication of 2026 🎉🎉, led by the outstanding @lbejarano.bsky.social 🤩, where we reveal some insights into this - focusing on brain metastasis 🧠🧪🔬 www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Registration is OPEN for the cancer research community to join us for the #EACR2026 Congress! 🥳 Don't miss the opportunity to take advantage of our discounted early registration rate to attend, available until 21 April. 2026.eacr.org

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition, The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance Iconic imo

Last year, we made the decision to step away from X. The Royal Irish Academy is committed to creating, convening, and sharing knowledge for the public good and as an organisation we value Independence; Integrity; Curiosity; Openness and Rigour. In our view, X no longer aligns with these values

Winter magic ❄️ #forestfriday #photography

X promotes fascism, child sexual abuse, and should be banned throughout Europe. Simple as that.

On this national day of mourning across Switzerland for the victims of the Crans-Montana tragedy, we remember all those who were lost, all who are gravely injured, their families and loved ones, the rescuers, and medical teams caring for them Such a heartbreaking loss of young lives in our region 💔

Understanding why cancers relapse - sometimes years or decades after successful treatment - is a major challenge in the cancer field This perspective in Nature discusses several of the important recent advances and new studies in the field of tumor dormancy 🧪⚕️ www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Happy new year!! May your 2026 be filled with wonder 💫 “When our eyes are graced with wonder, the world reveals its wonders to us So much depends on how we look at things The quality of our looking determines what we come to see” - John O'Donohue 📸 Ireland 12/2025 #photography #happynewyear

Wishing you a very happy holiday season, from our lab to yours!! 🎄❄️⛄🌟 Grateful for everything we were able to celebrate together this year - and looking forward for new discoveries and adventures in 2026 💫

Very pleased to share our new review "The Evolving Landscape of Brain Metastasis" in @cp-trendscancer.bsky.social 🧠🔬🧪 Grateful to an outstanding team of co-authors, all pioneers in the #brain #metastasis field and to @valientelab.bsky.social for co-leading this 🙏🏻 Link: www.cell.com/trends/cance...

European cancer research requires renewed urgency Delighted to contribute to this @natcancer.nature.com Commentary where we call for renewed urgency in how Europe supports cancer research, prevention, and innovation - and outline seven strategic priorities to strengthen Europe’s leadership 🧪🔬🇪🇺

Europe has the talent, ideas and networks to beat cancer. In a recent Nature Cancer article, EACR & EACS leaders urge EU investment in research to turn discoveries into real patient benefits. @johannajoyce.bsky.social #KeepResearchCurious magazine.eacr.org/european-can...

Amazing talk by @johannajoyce.bsky.social at #THPT25 — an impressive tour de force, beautifully contextualizing two decades of work. 😍

We're excited to host a distinguished lineup of speakers at @CellSymposia #CSHallmarks2026, including keynote speakers @johannajoyce.bsky.social & Faisal Mahmood @harvardmed.bsky.social. View the full speaker lineup: http://dlvr.it/TPbBqL

#CervicalCancer could be the first cancer EVER in the world to be eliminated, if: 9️⃣0️⃣% of girls are vaccinated 7️⃣0️⃣% of women are screened 9️⃣0️⃣% of women with cervical cancer receive treatment Learn more: bit.ly/47GIbzd#CervicalCancer#EndCervicalCancer

Wonderful kick-off meeting this week in Barcelona for our new @adaptmet.bsky.social PhD ITN! So inspiring to meet our 16 new PhD students, welcome new PIs and reconnect with friends from Evomet ITN - a true celebration of diversity and excellence in #metastasis research across Europe 🙌 adaptmet.eu

Join us behind the scenes at the EACR Congress! Go inside the decision-making process - how the programme comes together, what the committee looks for in cutting-edge science, and how the meeting sparks the next big ideas in cancer research. magazine.eacr.org/behind-the-s...

Honored to be among the #HighlyCited2025 researchers - which is truly a testament to the brilliant, dedicated scientists in my lab, and our many generous collaborators in Lausanne and beyond 🙏 @fbm-unil.bsky.social @unil.bsky.social @ludwigcancer.bsky.social clarivate.com/highly-cited...

💡 A new study in @cp-iscience.bsky.social led by @johannajoyce.bsky.social (@fbm-unil.bsky.social @unil.bsky.social @ludwigcancer.bsky.social) & Jean Hausser (@scilifelab.se @ki.se) tracks how #breast #tumors change over time, cell by cell. ➡️ www.unil.ch/news/1762789...

How does the tumor microenvironment change as cancer progresses - & which cells appear, persist, or disappear along the way? Excited to share our new study on the #TME answering this question! Great collaboration with the Hausser lab 🧪🧬🔬 Open access link: www.cell.com/iscience/ful... Read more ⏬

NEW Perspective by @alazozcan.bsky.social, Tommaso Vicanolo, Veronique Angeli, Yuval Rinkevich & @drusqui.bsky.social presents a model of immune cells as architects of tissue barriers, by depositing matrix components or by interactions with structural cells and the ECM #structuralimmunity #immunosky

As the single most important news story this year, I can't wait to see the detailed and central coverage this will get in every media outlet we have

@joann-trejo.bsky.social, @marymunson4.bsky.social and I have a commentary in @natcellbio.nature.com on recent attacks on DEI in biomedical research: "If scientific research, especially biomedical research, is meant to serve everyone, then it requires that everyone has an opportunity to participate"
