Congratulations to Dr. Teresa Sanchez (@SanchezLabVB ) on winning the @CPathInstitute BRIDGe award! Dr. Sanchez & her multidisciplinary team will advance research on a potential therapy for sepsis-associated neurocognitive dysfunction. lnkd.in/eKvaNkk3 @WCMCPathology

🎉 Congratulations to our July Reviewer of the Month, Dr. Vignesh Packiam! Your commitment to the Platinum Journal keeps us a cut above the rest. Thank you!



New in @NEJM: Phase 3 LITESPARK-022 showed belzutifan + pembrolizumab significantly improved disease-free survival in high-risk kidney cancer after surgery. The FDA recently approved the combo in this patient population. Study lead @DrChoueiri of @DanaFarber explains:



Meet BCAN Young Investigator Awardee @JaekwonKim49373 of @WeillCornell. “This award will support my research investigating how environmental carcinogens drive APOBEC-mediated mutagenesis in bladder cancer. I am deeply grateful to BCAN for supporting early-career investigators and advancing research that may ultimately improve prevention and treatment strategies for bladder cancer patients.”




Meet BCAN Young Investigator Awardee @Rahul_RaSingh of @WeillCornell. “Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers in the United States, and once it spreads, treatment options remain very limited. This award supports my research into how brief bursts of DNA damage leave a permanent mark that drives cancer spread, and how we can reverse it using next-generation protein-degrader technologies. The BCAN Young Investigator Award is the foundation I need to turn these discoveries into real therapeutic strategies for patients with metastatic bladder cancer.”
