What says leaving Vancouver more than a #redtoque, a @TheWRP4LC and a Thunderbird. It seems a little unreal to be on my way to #AACR25 with #AACRSSP. But here I am.

What if we could detect a lung cancer patient’s relapse months before it’s visible on scans? A recent study in Nature Magazine sheds light on the powerful potential of molecular residual disease (MRD) analysis. #lungcancer

Wondering why online discourse is so hostile? $10M in foreign money funding went to content creators attacking Canadian institutions, from healthcare to immigration. And researchers say this is just the tip of the iceberg. Read @jenstden.bsky.social in @thetyee.ca | https://buff.ly/3DKNu3Y

Print vs digital distribution is badly broken and it is making it hard for libraries to match demand. But it is just a bunch of bits and bytes. Per copy pricing is a ridiculous way to approach it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Having just visited a castle that dates back to the 1100s, I can’t help but think this is what Musk and Trump want. A king, some lords, and everyone else living in fear and servitude.

I would suggest further that even when it is diagnosed it is often untreated. There are effective tools and often they are not deployed. Temel's research in #lungcancer shows supportive (palliative)care is more effective in extending life than some chemos!

"Perhaps the most important thing we bring to another person is the silence in us. Not the sort of silence that is filled with unspoken criticism or hard withdrawal. The sort of silence that is a place of refuge, of rest, of acceptance of someone as they are." Remon #redtoque
