For women, by women! Honored to work with the incomparable @cdecoders group led by Prof. @dagdevirencanan. Measuring, monitoring, screening one life at a time.

20 to 30 percent of all breast tumors are diagnosed between regular screenings. For people at high risk for breast cancer, frequent ultrasound scanning — in addition to regular mammograms — can help detect tumors early. A portable ultrasound scanner developed by researchers in the @cdecoders group led by Prof. @dagdevirencanan could make it easier for breast ultrasounds to be performed more often, either at home or at a doctor’s office. news.mit.edu/2026/portable-…

Happy Psyche asteroid discovery day! Others may refer to this day as St. Patrick's Day, and we're all for it, but on this day in 1852 Annibale de Gasparis discovered (16) Psyche while working at the observatory in Naples. Celebrate both! @MissionToPsyche

Newman says they are recommending four different types of mission campaigns in order of preference. She notes that these are types of campaigns, not recommendations for landing sites. The first three are the 30 sols - cargo - 300+ sols types of missions. The fourth is a 30-30-30 sols style mission.
