Using a simple concept and a patented Sandia #sensor that detects #radioactive materials, a team at Sandia National Laboratories has developed a patch to stop damage to healthy tissue during proton #radiotherapy, one of the best tools to target certain #cancerous #tumors.

@JeanMarcvanTol @EU_Commission So 10 more years of glyphosate in Europe, approved by the European Commission🤔???
How about investigating corruption & bribery?

"A California jury on Friday found Monsanto liable in a lawsuit filed by a man who alleged the company’s glyphosate-based weed-killers, including Roundup, caused his cancer and ordered the company to pay $289 million in damages.

The case of school groundskeeper Dewayne Johnson was the first lawsuit to go to trial alleging glyphosate causes cancer. Monsanto, a unit of Bayer AG following a $62.5 billion acquisition by the German conglomerate, faces more than 5,000 similar lawsuits across the United States."

ReutersMonsanto ordered to pay $289 million in world's first Roundup cancer trialBy Tina Bellon

It’s time to pause IARC and redefine what they do. While they org has value, their procedure is deeply flawed. In all the things they’ve evaluated (~1000), they’ve classified all of them as either unknown or carcinogenic, even though they have multiple classification levels. It’s a 50:50 crap shoot. There are also serious concerns and evidence that the process has been compromised by tort lawyers. #iarc #chemical #cancer #cancerous #health

Healthy #cells work hard to maintain the integrity of our #DNA, but occasionally, a #chromosome can get separated from the others and break apart during cell division. The tiny fragments of DNA then get reassembled in random order in the new cell, sometimes producing #cancerous #gene mutations.

Yesterday was a pretty mixed bag. We got a call from the #Surgical #Oncologist confirming that the two #biopsies were #cancerous, :btr_bocchi_pain:​ which wasn’t surprising, but was still hard to hear. :fuminodepression3:

Later that evening, our son (who lives just around the corner) came over to see us (but mostly Sami, who’s his birth mom), and after some talking, we watched a #movie he hadn’t seen before - #GhostInTheShell 🤖​. We had a lot of great #discussions after that. All in all, a good night. 💤
