Tell me, @ColumbusPolice what part of this is protect or serve? We were treating people in an alley and you gleefully chased us and sprayed another medic from a distance of inches and LAUGHED about it. #columbusprotest #ColumbusOhio

New method from the Yale School of Public Health analyzes how mutations interact to alter tumor development. The innovation should make it easier to develop targeted therapies that anticipate the evolutionary path of a cancer, then corner and eradicate it. buff.ly/48DQlpy

I wish more NGS testing companies had reports as easily readable as F1s 🥰 looking at you, @carisls
The #FDA approved FoundationOne® CDx & FoundationOne Liquid CDx as companion diagnostics for the identification of patients with metastatic #NSCLC with BRAF V600E mutations, & who may benefit from treatment with encorafenib binimetinib. targetedonc.com/view/fda-oka…

Targeted treatment is the way!
Molecular analysis revealed potential treatment options for 69.3% of patients. Identifying TP53 E285K mutation prevalence and features associated with treatment benefit could pave the way for targeted therapies. #CancerTreatment ow.ly/mqP750P2Vsj

And yet, hospital admins STILL just can't figure out why we leave the bedside in droves.
My friend who is an RN just told me that her co-worker didn’t get approved time off for her own wedding. Wtf are we doing to our own over here in healthcare.

Pretty exciting!
Accelerated approval by @US_FDA for KRAZATI (@Mirati Adagrasib) in locally advanced or metastatic #LungCancer with KRAS G12C mutation. And then there were two (KRAZATI & LUMAKRAS). accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/c…

A new library documenting mutations can help explain why some #cancers don't respond to #immunotherapies. Researchers from @sangerinstitute used #CRISPR gene editing technology and mini tumors to understand the role of mutations in #bowelcancer cell lines: ow.ly/4IOe50Nb0iS
