I am reminded once again that research matters. My wife’s friend was diagnosed with metastatic ovarian cancer, resistant to our favorite drug Cis/Carboplatin. Genetic testing revealed, among other things, KRAS G12A mutation. She was started on a KRAS inhibitor but unfortunately developed massive myopathy to the point she could barely walk. At that point, she needed bilateral nephrostomy tubes for renal blockage and was given weeks to live. But her mutation panel had also revealed modestly elevated tumor mutation burden (TMB) and CHEK2 mutation, which is involved in DNA damage response. Based on this (though the evidence was limited), she was started on immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) as a last-ditch effort. Since then, her tumors have melted away, and our friend is now strong enough to clear the snow during LAST NIGHT's blizzard in Northeast. Below is a photo she just sent us. I share not just because this is a miracle, but a SCIENCE IN ACTION! #SpartansWill #ResearchSavesLives @MSUMD, @MSU_Medicine, @HFH_MSU_HS

This is not business as usual. My new UN report, From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide, is out today. It shows how corporations have fueled and legitimised the destruction of Palestine. Genocide, it would seem, is profitable. This cannot continue, accountability must follow. ohchr.org/sites/default/… #EconomyofOccupation #EconomyofGenocide

🧬 Ageing, immunity & chronic diseases: HT wins €2.5M @ERC_Research Advanced Grant for a 5-year project led by @nicolesoranzo. Using AI & big data, the group will decode how our immune system weakens over time. A huge step for precision medicine! humantechnopole.it/en/news/ageing…

Super excited to be at #EHA2025! Come to listen to our story on germline variation and CHIP at Poster PF1119 Friday evening!

BREAKING!!! - 11:18PM UK time; I am with the flotilla online. They have just been reached by the Israel speedboats - 5 vessels circling the flotilla. The captain is instructing the team to stay calm and seated, with their passports and life jackets on. I hear them speaking with Israeli soldiers as I type... telling they are carrying humanitarian aid and go in peace. For the time being they are just circled. I am with them, recording everything.
