Glynn, the penny farthing rider, and his son are doing the Liverpool to Chester bike ride to fund raise for cancer research.
I will be seriously impressed if he's riding through the Mersey tunnel on the penny farthing!!!

New preprint out! We expand the concept of MHC-I promiscuity - from peptides to populations - to support cancer vaccine discovery.
The CARMEN database harmonizes data from 72 studies and 2,300+ cancer samples. Proud to be part of this work!
Check it out at https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.08.651510 (submitted to Nature Communications).
A friend of mine's daughter is a survivor and they're raising money to fight childhood cancer.
If you can help that would be lovely.

"... the collection of 28 (as of March of this year) cancer experts from universities across the country are there to help guide the NCI’s progress as the preeminent funder of cancer research in the world. As of Monday, no they’re not.
Multiple members have now confirmed to Splinter that the [National Cancer Institute's] Board of Scientific Advisors has been entirely disbanded."

Just heartbreaking. The disbanding of the National Cancer Institute’s scientific advisory board is another blow in a growing list of anti-science moves. It’s short-sighted, dangerous, and future generations will pay the price.

New #preLights post from Vibha Singh!
In this highlighted #preprint, the research team (#NalbantLab) introduces a powerful new approach to studying mechanobiological regulation in cancer. In doing so, they describe how tumour cells manage to “pull” themselves away from the tumour bulk during invasion.

This week shines light on significant stories: Cancer mortality in the U.S.
fell 1.5% annually between 2018-2022! Lung cancer death rates have especially taken a downturn.
Even during COVID, death rates continued to decline! #CancerResearch #HealthStatistics
Kairos Pharma receives $876K DoD grant to advance lung cancer research, targeting treatment resistance through innovative ENV105 antibody therapy. Groundbreaking work at Cedars-Sinai promises new hope for patients. #CancerResearch #Oncology

“I don’t think anyone appreciated the magnitude by which even mild stress, if it’s chronic, can have such a negative influence on cancer growth.” —cancer immunologist Elizabeth Repasky
People with cancer may experience a wide range of stressors, both related and unrelated to the disease. A growing body of evidence suggests that these may influence how a tumor grows and spreads.
