📖 Emperor of All Maladies' by Siddhartha Mukherjee beautifully blends science and history, offering a captivating journey into the complexities of cancer research. It not only delves into the scientific aspects of cancer but also explores the social, cultural, and personal dimensions of the disease. A must-read for those fascinated by cancer history. #bookrecommendation #cancerresearch #cancer https://lnkd.in/djpQMAXr

Thank you to Eric Topol, MD for his outstanding contribution to the field of medicine and public health. For all of you anti-vaxxers and people who demonize public health professionals and research scientists such as Peter Hotez MD PhD, I suggest you get your act together and start listening to Dr Topol and Dr. Hotez. #LongCOVID is nothing you want to mess around with. You can become permanently disabled and unemployable for the rest of your life if you have a severe case of this poorly understood debilitating post viral syndrome. By the way, those who are unvaccinated have a greater risk of contracting this disease process, and anyone of any age can acquire this even with a mild infection. Thank you to imminobiologist Akiko Iwasaki for her outstanding contribution to understanding this multi-factorial debilitating disease process for which there is currently no cure or effective treatments to reduce the pain and suffering experienced by those who struggle with severe clinical disease.

Hello guys!!."Delighted to have participated in the recent symposium at VIT University, where I gained valuable insights into Cervical Cancer Prediction using Machine Learning Algorithms. The event provided a platform to connect with industry leaders and experts. #VITConference #ProfessionalDevelopment".

The “Ask a scientist” section of the Spring 2024 Ludwig Link explores how the AI revolution we’re living through now is transforming the world of cancer research and care. (https://bit.ly/4dIOXWd) #AskAScientist

Last week at the 8th World Conference on Qualitative Research held in Portugal, CGP Academic Associate Terese Knoppers underscored the importance of considering patient perspectives with online cancer information during their insightful talk on “Nurturing Connections: Patient Insights on the Internet for Cancer Information and Support.” Read Abstract: https://lnkd.in/eWBqxUpa #WCQR2024 #qualitativeresearch #cancersupport #cancerinformation

At TGen, we are working to learn about cancer from different perspectives to help us solve the problem of finding a cure. Floris Barthel, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor, is working to dissect the role of the telomere - the end portion of a #chromosome - in #brain cells. He uses high-throughput sequencing and computational analysis to see if there are mutational signatures that can provide a picture of what is happening in growing #cancer cells.

As a researcher, your first paper is always the memorable one. At the top of it, if you are the first author, it's a cherry on the cake! I am extremely excited and happy to share my first review paper as a first author. The paper is for people coming from fields of Optics, AI and Cancer diagnosis! #cancer #diagnostics #optics #cervicalcancer #ai #research

Inspired by a recent workshop, hopefully you will enjoy this article about cancer and how mathematicians are trying to solve this problem: https://lnkd.in/ehER6Q5g
