Why has it taken medicinal chemistry 36 years, since Channing Derās discovery in 1982 that KRAS is an oncogene, to get to the first KRAS drug approval?

Pathway analysis is frequently performed with gene expression data. However, pathways are largely set up by proteins, and not mRNA. Why do they then often give a strong signal? In our new study w. @ben_szalai we investigated this apparent contradiction. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/ā¦

Unfortunately, this is not new investment.
The @NHMRC budget hasnāt increased since 2006.
Australian discovery science is near collapse and more funds for NHMRC are urgently needed.
